Alim Intro (short)

We have built a generalized Christian apologetics conversational AI, and we are now building chatbots that are contextualized to specific worldviews. We curate Christian apologetics resources to provide the AI agents with relevant context from which to answer difficult questions about God, Jesus, and the Bible. We are especially excited about the potential of worldview-specific chatbots to provide a contextualized experience to seekers. By first appealing to sources of authority the user already trusts, we are then able to tie those sources back to Christian doctrine — or point out the gaps in the user’s worldview for which Christianity has a better explanatory model. For example, check out Alim, our first worldview-specific chatbot that ministers to the Muslim community. This contextualized approach was famously used in Paul’s sermon on Mars Hill in Acts 17:22-34, as well as of course by Jesus Himself in appealing to the Scriptures revered by the Jewish community of His day. This strategy has applicability outside the confines of other religions as well; one could easily imagine chatbots that minister to secular scientists by citing how modern scientific discoveries point to the Creator in their respective disciplines, for example. "For though I am free from all, I have made myself a servant to all, that I might win more of them. To the Jews I became as a Jew, in order to win Jews. To those under the law I became as one under the law (though not being myself under the law) that I might win those under the law. To those outside the law I became as one outside the law (not being outside the law of God but under the law of Christ) that I might win those outside the law. To the weak I became weak, that I might win the weak. I have become all things to all people, that by all means I might save some. I do it all for the sake of the gospel, that I may share with them in its blessings." ~ 1 Corinthians 9:19-23 (ESV)
