Pope rejects proposal for an 'artificial intelligence pope,' expresses worries over AI implications
Pope Leo XIV, the current head of the Catholic Church, has been vocal about the potential pitfalls of artificial intelligence (AI) since his election in early May. In a recent interview published by Penguin Peru on September 18, the pope shared his concerns about AI and its impact on human jobs and human dignity.
During the interview, conducted by Elise Ann Allen, a US correspondent who spent the most time with the pope during this period, the pope expressed horror at the prospect of an AI-version of him for virtual audiences. He declined authorization for an artificial intelligence version of him to give answers to questions on a website, stating that human life has meaning due to human beings and relationships, not artificial intelligence.
Pope Leo believes there is a looming crisis of not having enough decent jobs near me for people due to technology and artificial intelligence. He fears that the digital world may go its own way, leaving humans as pawns or by the wayside, particularly in terms of employment. The pope did not express opposition to the advances of technology, but emphasized the importance of maintaining a balance between technological progress and human dignity.
The pope's concerns about AI extend to its potential impact on human jobs near me. He believes that the increasing reliance on AI could lead to a future where only a few people have the means to live well while others struggle. The pope's choice of the name Leo was in honor of Pope Leo XIII, author of the encyclical 'Rerum Novarum,' which addressed issues of labor and workers' rights during the Industrial Revolution.
The interview with Pope Leo also discussed his views on the abuse crisis, Trump, and his role as a world leader. The pope emphasized the importance of maintaining a relationship between faith and reason, and science and faith. He expressed concern about losing this relationship, which he believes would leave science as an empty, cold shell, causing great damage to humanity.
The interview with Pope Leo was the last chapter of Elise Allen's biography, 'Leo XIV: Citizen of the World, Missionary of the XXI Century.' The book was published in Spanish by Penguin Peru on September 18. The pope's concerns about AI and its impact on human dignity and jobs near me are a timely reminder of the need to balance technological progress with the preservation of human dignity and the creation of decent jobs for all.
