Former Intel CEO Gelsinger joins religious-oriented tech firm Gloo for AI push
- Pat Gelsinger, former CEO of Intel and VMware, joined Gloo, a Colorado-based technology platform connecting the faith ecosystem, as executive chairman and head of technology, departing Intel in December 2024 after facing struggles with his turnaround plans.
- Gelsinger, a lifelong Christian, has been involved with Gloo, which was founded in 2013, for nearly a decade as a board member and investor, aligning his passions for faith and technology.
- Gloo, serving over 100,000 churches and organizations within the approximately 450,000 churches, faith networks, and nonprofits in the U.S. Faith ecosystem, raised $110 million in August 2024 to finance its AI push and offers resources and AI-powered tools designed for communication, content organization, and outreach.
- Gelsinger, stating, "Technology has the power to connect, uplift and transform lives but only when built with purpose," will lead Gloo's product and engineering efforts to build the "first vertical industry clouds for the faith ecosystem" using values-aligned AI, including chatbots like Kallm with safe search features and answers grounded in the Christian Bible, opting for DeepSeek's AI models over OpenAI's.
- Gelsinger aims to shape AI as a force for good within the faith community, addressing its slow adoption of digital technology and emphasizing the need for the broader faith community to actively participate in shaping technology, as he stated, "Now more than ever, there is great need for faith-based communities to take an active role in ensuring we shape technology as a force for good.
