AI, Bible Apps and Theological Bias

How do AI chatbots shape how we read, interpret and engage with Scripture?
Today, millions of people are turning to AI chatbots to deepen their understanding of Scripture. But does generative AI impact how we interpret and interact with the Bible? And do Bible chatbots show theological bias? These questions are raised in a research paper produced by the Cambridge Centre for Chinese Theology (CCCT), in collaboration with Bible Society.
Published in January 2026, AI, Bible Apps and Theological Bias is the result of a pilot study that examined how four Bible apps responded to questions that raise different responses across the Church. In doing so, the study sought to understand if the apps privileged certain theological traditions and perspectives.
