  Smartphone apps, social media, and artificial intelligence are all making religion more accessible. Is it enough to slow recent declines in religious beliefs?

The article from National Geographic explores the intersection of technology and religion, highlighting how advancements in technology are influencing faith practices and beliefs. It discusses how virtual reality (VR) and artificial intelligence (AI) are being used to enhance religious experiences, from virtual pilgrimages to AI-driven spiritual guidance. The piece also examines the ethical and philosophical questions these technologies raise, such as the authenticity of digital religious experiences and the potential for AI to simulate or even replace human spiritual leaders. Furthermore, it touches on how technology can both bridge and widen the gap between different religious communities, offering new forms of worship while also challenging traditional practices. The article suggests that while technology can expand the reach and accessibility of religious experiences, it also prompts believers to reconsider what constitutes sacred space and community in an increasingly digital world.
