Pope Leo XIV emphasizes the vital need to safeguard human dignity amidst the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence.
In a recent address at St. Peter's Basilica during the Jubilee of Youth, Pope Leo XIV highlighted the pressing need to protect human dignity as artificial intelligence (AI) technology continues to evolve. Speaking to a gathering of young Catholic influencers, the Pope urged that no invention should be utilized to undermine the dignity of individuals. He articulated a vision for AI and related technologies to serve "the benefit of all humanity."
The pontiff's comments arrive as part of an ongoing campaign to address the ethical implications of AI, marking yet another significant statement since his election in May. He called for a collective endeavor to cultivate a new mindset and vernacular that emphasizes love and connection in this "new era" of technological advancement.
Additionally, he challenged social media influencers to reach out to those in need and to generate content that uplifts and inspires, advocating for a reduction in societal division and egocentrism. "Be agents of communion," he urged, as he invites young creators to break down barriers of isolation and difference.
Pope Leo XIV, who made history as the first American pontiff, continues to advocate for marginalized communities, nurtured by his own background and experiences. Asserting the Church's role in defending human rights and dignity, the Pope reinforces that the Vatican's teachings remain vital in navigating the ethical terrain of modern innovations, including AI.
With calls for unity at its core, the Pope's message resonates not just within the Catholic community, but as a broader appeal for cooperation and empathy in an increasingly digital world.
