How AI could change our relationship with religion

Metamorworks / Shutterstock Sreevas Sahasranamam, University of Glasgow Science and faith are often kept in two distinct boxes that hardly ever intersect.

  By Malcolm McCulloch, The University of Western Australia   Global temperatures have already exceeded 1.5°C warming and may pass 2°C later this decade, according to a world-first study I led.
