I’m looking for a role where I can write and research at the intersection of AI ethics and high anthropology—grounded in communication, cross-cultural formation—helping teams build responsible frameworks for human identity, governance, and meaning-making in technology societies.
Charles Bivens
@charlesbivens
AI ethics writer and theology/anthropology researcher exploring identity, trauma recovery, and AGI’s metaphysical implications for humans.
What I'm looking for
I’m an AI ethics writer and research-focused scholar with a UK (Advanced) Royal Chartered University MTh in Practical Theology (verified U.S. equivalency). My work brings together theology, depth psychology, research methodology, the humanities, and cultural criticism to ask a core question:
What is a human being?
I examine the crisis of human identity in late modernity, the metaphysics of AGI, and the role of narrative, ritual, and consciousness formation in rebuilding meaning. I integrate theological anthropology, trauma-informed, recovery-oriented formation, and ethics/governance concerns to develop frameworks that can withstand the pressure AGI places on Western anthropological coherence.
I’ve led mentoring and formation as director, CEO, Founder, creative architect, lead instructor, and more. I've served in various roles within the 501 (c) (3) non-profit sector. I’ve coordinated and taught human transformation programs where trauma-aware pedagogy and culturally adaptive learning mattered. With 10+ years of cross-cultural anthropological work across Asia, I continue to build research-informed teaching for crisis contexts—especially where dignity, resilience, and identity reconstruction are urgently needed.
