[Ep 57] AI, Faith & The Human Edge with Bobby Johnson

In this episode of The Hype Pod, we sit down with Pastor Bobby Johnson—AI/ML strategist, product leader, husband, father, and lead pastor of Vive Church Oakland—whose journey bridges Silicon Valley innovation and Kingdom impact. 
Bobby shares how a season of job loss pushed him to dive deep into product management and AI, and how early adoption of tools like ChatGPT reshaped the way he thought about work, creativity, and leadership. We talk about the rise of AI agents and even superintelligence, what it means for critical thinking, parenting, and discipleship, and why context, prayer, and creativity are still irreplaceable in a tech-driven age. 
Whether he’s consulting companies on integrating AI, mentoring teams, or preaching in Oakland, Bobby brings wisdom on staying grounded in faith while navigating disruptive change. He reminds us that while technology can accelerate our abilities, it’s our foundation in Christ that shapes our identity, our calling, and our impact. 
This is a conversation filled with insight for entrepreneurs, leaders, parents, and believers ready to embrace the future without losing what matters most.
