Creativity, Compassion and Connection Needed to Compete with A.I., Says Emmanuel President

“A.I. may be superb at compiling, processing, synthesizing and repackaging existing information. But originality? Breakthrough ideas? Grace-filled epiphanies? Lines of thinking that challenge assumptions and transcend convention? These abilities exist in each one of us at levels that A.I. cannot touch.”

— Emmanuel College President Beth Ross, Ed.D,
in her article “Graduates of Catholic colleges must develop qualities that A.I. can never provide,”
February 2026 issue of America Magazine
