The special issue of IJIMAI magazine on artificial intelligence, spirituality, and analogical thinking is now available

La Rioja, Logroño, España, 2 September 2021

In our increasingly digitised society, reflections are emerging on how information technology interacts with ethics, politics, beliefs, and religious practices, which use these media to disseminate their messages and express themselves.

What is the relationship between computing and the meaning of human life? What is it that differentiates the human being from the machine? This special issue looks at this from three different angles, considering aspects such as artificial intelligence, spirituality, and analogical thinking.

The following are the contents covered in this volume of the magazine:
