AI Ethics & Human Dignity Audit Workbook

A 23-page working guide through the five dimensions every AI ethics framework assumes but never names — with case studies, teaching, scoring, and space to write.

____________________________________________________________________________

Every AI ethics framework — every governance document, every "responsible AI" charter — assumes an answer to one question it never states: what is a human being?

This workbook does not let that question stay hidden.

Across 23 pages, it walks through five dimensions of irreducible humanity — embodiment, relationality, moral responsiveness, meaning-seeking, and interior depth — and asks, dimension by dimension, what your organization's relationship to AI is actually doing to each one.

WHAT'S INSIDE

→ A real-world case for each dimension — a concrete pattern AI systems are already producing in workplaces, classrooms, and institutions right now

→ Teaching content unpacking why machines cannot reach what each dimension protects

→ Direct scoring questions (no vague self-assessment — specific, answerable, honest)

→ Space to write your own examples and reflections

→ A full scoring matrix with tier interpretation (Critical / Developing / Strong)

→ Clear next steps, including the AI Ethics & Human Dignity Audit — a guided 90-minute session built directly on your completed workbook

WHO THIS IS FOR

Leaders, boards, and teams in faith communities, academic institutions, nonprofits, and policy organizations who are adopting AI systems and want a real framework for asking what that adoption costs — not just what it produces.

This is not a checklist. It is an instrument — built to locate, not to flatter.
