The pair said the idea arose when they began questioning the source of modern chatbots\u2019 moral frameworks, turning to their Catholic faith and its centuries of scholarly work on ethics as the answer.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When we were using a lot of these mainstream platforms, we really realized that you couldn&#8217;t trace the moral framework back to what it really was,&#8221; Thomas Cooney said Saturday on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/shows\/fox-friends-weekend\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">&#8220;Fox &amp; Friends Weekend.&#8221;<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Growing up in a Catholic family, we kind of just realized that the best place to get [morals] is not from some tech CEO or even some ethics team,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/ai-risks-kids-workers-rising-faster-than-regulation-new-group-warns\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>AI RISKS TO KIDS, WORKERS RISING FASTER THAN REGULATION, NEW GROUP WARNS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Acutis AI is named after the first millennial saint, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/us\/religion\/roman-catholic\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Blessed Carlo Acutis<\/a>, who died at age 15. He was nicknamed &#8220;God\u2019s Influencer&#8221; for his work creating a website to document Eucharistic miracles.<\/p>\n<p>Peter Cooney said the goal is to ensure families have a safe place in the AI sphere to receive moral responses and advice.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The biggest danger is for kids and teenagers who can become addicted to these big platforms, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/tech\/artificial-intelligence\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">these AI chatbots<\/a>. And they\u2019re feeding them incorrect information,&#8221; Peter said.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/opinion\/faith-deficit-artificial-intelligence-should-alarm-every-american\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>THE FAITH DEFICIT IN ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE SHOULD ALARM EVERY AMERICAN<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Acutis AI includes several features for parents designed to ensure their children&#8217;s safety online. The platform offers tools like time limits, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/lifestyle\/parenting\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">parental monitoring<\/a> and restricted use during user-designated homework hours.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We put parental controls so parents can see exactly what their kids are saying. They can get alerted if their kids ask about dangerous topics,&#8221; Peter said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;ll make sure that it&#8217;s always answering through Catholic perspectives, no matter what the question is about.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/60-minutes-accused-using-left-leaning-cardinals-bait-trump-feud-vatican\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>&#8217;60 MINUTES&#8217; ACCUSED OF USING LEFT-LEANING CARDINALS TO BAIT TRUMP INTO FEUD WITH VATICAN<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\"><strong>CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTURE<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The website also notes that when young people ask difficult questions, the AI is trained to respond with moral grounding rather than trying to keep the user &#8220;addicted&#8221; to the chat.<\/p>\n<p>The creation of Acutis AI comes as many members of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/opinion\/culture-opinion\/gen-z\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Gen Z<\/a> find their way back to religion.
