Artificial Intelligence Merit Badge

Digital Wisdom & AI Ethics

Wednesday, March 11 | 5:00 PM – 7:00 PM

Parish House, St. Ignatius Loyola 980 Park Ave and E 83 St, NY, NY 10028 

Scouts are invited to participate in a special community discussion led by Attorney Kenn Kern and GNYC Artificial Intelligence Merit Badge Counselor Antonio del Rosario.

This session will explore how constant connectivity, social media, and emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence affect our attention, relationships, decision-making, and spiritual well-being. Together, we will identify the “weeds” of digital distraction, negativity, and isolation, and discuss practical ways to plant the “seeds” of focus, balance, character, and faith.

This program is designed to support the Ethics and Responsible Use components of the Artificial Intelligence Merit Badge along with all the requirements .
