Max Tretter – författare

Artificial Intelligence has entered religious contexts. This edited volume focuses on AI as it is developed for religious settings and increasingly embedded in concrete religious practices. It offers an interdisciplinary and interreligious perspective on a rapidly evolving field.Technically oriented contributions provide insights into the development of specific AI tools for religious applications and explore the technical, conceptual, and design-related challenges involved. Contributions from theology, religious studies, and ethics analyze how Artificial Intelligence is reshaping religious communication and practices, reflect on the implications of these developments, and formulate guidelines and impulses for the responsible use of AI in religious contexts.By systematically bringing technical development into conversation with theological and ethical reflection, the volume bridges theory and practice. It is intended for researchers, students, and practitioners interested in religion in the age of Artificial Intelligence.

Hip-Hop kann als der Soundtrack der Black Lives Matter -Bewegung gelten. Dies zeigt sich eindrucksvoll daran, dass in mehreren Protestkontexten Songs wie Kendrick Lamar's  Alright  abgespielt, oder der Refrain von Ludacris' Move Bitch von Protestierenden angestimmt wurde. Solche Szenen werfen die grundlegenden Fragen nach der Wirkung derlei ästhetischer Ausdrucks- und Protestformen in der Öffentlichkeit auf. Im interdisziplinären Dialog mit ästhetischen und Öffentlichkeitstheorien sowie den Hip Hop Studies , der Öffentlichen Theologie und der Black Theology, entwickelt Max Tretter ein Werkzeug, welches hilft, die Wirkung ästhetischer Ausdrucksformen präzise zu erfassen und normativ Stellung zu ihnen zu beziehen. So entsteht ein innovativer Ansatz zur Analyse und Bewertung ästhetischer Protest- und Ausdrucksformen, der die Themen Hip-Hop und Black Lives Matter in der deutschsprachigen Theologie verankert.
