“They were continually devoting themselves to the apostles' teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer.” Acts 2:42 (NASB95).

My name is Abraham Hamilton, III and this is The Hamilton Minute.

In this information age, mankind is more connected than we’ve ever been in human history. However, some studies show that many feel more lonely and isolated than ever.

To address that conundrum, Meta’s Mark Zuckerberg has a solution. He says, America’s loneliness problem can be cured by rolling out increasingly personalized AI assistants. That’s right, Zuckerberg says AI “friends” are the cure.

This is foolishness. God made mankind to be socially connected. There is no substitute for real, flesh and blood relationships with people.

Fake digital “friends” is the problem, not the solution.
