Pope Leo XIV to Release Encyclical on AI Ethics May 25
Pope Leo XIV is set to issue his first major document, an encyclical titled "Magnifica Humanita," on May 25, addressing the ethical challenges posed by artificial intelligence (AI). This announcement was made by the Vatican on Monday.
The encyclical will focus on the rise of AI and its implications for labor rights and global peace, marking a significant moment as it breaks from papal tradition by being co-presented with Chri Olah, co-founder of the AI company Anthrop. The document is expected to cover a range of social issues and provide guidance on protecting human dignity in the face of advancing technology.
Pope Leo XIV, the first American pope, aims to address serious social and moral issues in the modern world, following a warning about the risks of AI and its potential use in warfare. This encyclical will be released on the 135th anniversary of Pope Leo XIII's encyclical on labor conditions, reflecting a continuity in the Church's focus on labor rights.
