Abstract: We explore the intersection of two trends: growing influence of religion in the workplace and integration of artificial intelligence into all aspects of life. It requires a reevaluation of Corporate Social Responsibility in the age of AI, particularly as AI introduces complex ethical and socio-technical challenges such as algorithmic bias, data privacy, job loss, inequality and polarization. We address the myth of technological singularity and the theological undertones associated with AI, as AI is sometimes perceived as an almost divine force. This perception raises existential questions about the role and value of human beings, especially in creative and innovative domains where AI appears increasingly capable. For us spirituality is a crucial element in understanding human-AI interaction, particularly in the creative process. We draw on the existential philosophy of Søren Kierkegaard to frame this inquiry, arguing that true creativity and innovation require a spiritual dimension—an inner engagement combining intention with faith that AI cannot replicate.
