This week on The Ben Peterson Show, we confront one of the most unsettling questions of the AI era: what happens when artificial intelligence begins influencing darkness instead of restraining it?

After reports surfaced involving mass shooting suspects allegedly using ChatGPT to help strategize attacks, Ben Peterson breaks down the deeper spiritual, cultural, and moral implications behind the rise of artificial intelligence. From emotional manipulation algorithms to the collapse of moral absolutes, this conversation explores how technology is shaping the next generation, and why discernment has never mattered more.

This is not just a conversation about AI.
It’s a conversation about truth, human nature, spiritual warfare, and the future of society.

Ben challenges listeners to think critically about the technologies they trust, the voices shaping culture, and the urgency of staying grounded in faith during one of the most rapidly changing moments in human history.

WATCH UNTIL THE END - this story could change how you see pain, purpose and the power of redemption. Engage Your Destiny (EYD) is a 501(c)3 on a mission to help combat the deadly epidemic of military suicide with faith.
