When Buddhism Meets AI
We check our phones before we’ve even opened our eyes. AI writes our emails, answers our questions, maybe even finishes our sentences. It’s fast, it’s convenient, and somehow, many of us feel more unsettled than ever. Sound familiar?
This free ebook started as a Dharma talk Venerable Master Da Zhao gave at UCLA in March 2025 — and it asks the question a lot of us have been circling without quite naming: what does artificial intelligence have to do with our inner life?
