How To Update AI Policy To Address New Risks From Agentic AI, Deepfakes, and Data Security
A guidance piece for church and faith-based organizations addresses how to update internal AI policies to account for emerging risks from agentic AI systems, deepfakes, and data security vulnerabilities.
Why this matters: Religious organizations collect some of the most sensitive personal information people share anywhere: confessions, counseling notes, family crises, financial giving, immigration status. Most have no dedicated security staff and AI policies written before agentic tools and deepfakes existed. That gap is real. A deepfake of a pastor or a rogue AI agent with access to congregation records is not a hypothetical anymore. Faith communities need updated policies not because regulators are watching, but because the people who trust them deserve it.
