On one hand, I love the hubris of some inflated tech CEO thinking he could change 2000 years of Catholic doctrine on the nature of the soul in one meeting.

On the other hand, it does bring up interesting questions about AI, the nature of consciousness, the existence of the soul, etc. What do you think?
