Grateful to @EdmundMitchell and @edmundoreyes of the Faith and AI Project for facilitating this conversation on Magnifica Humanitas. Dr. Brett T. Robinson from University of Notre Dame and Fr. Jean Gové, Diocesan Coordinator for AI for the Archdiocese of Malta are two of my favorite commentators on AI. This is a wide-ranging discussion and worth the full watch. The encyclical is not a regulatory document and this panel does not treat it like one. Link to the full episode in the comments.

@metathomist Appreciate the support @metathomist. We still have a ton of work to do, but some cool stuff will be pushed over the next few weeks. Exciting days ahead!

[Matthew Harvey Sanders @SandersGame]

Amen to that! It's a big deal. Congratulations @MontseEWTN :) We'll support you in any way we can.

[Ambassador Brian Burch @BrianBurchUSA]

Congrats to @MontseEWTN. Superbly qualified media professional selected by Pope Leo XIV to lead the Vatican’s Dicastery for Communications.

Just delivered a speech on AI and the future of work at the London Jesuit Center. The following day Lord Griffiths of Fforestfach hosted a Q/A at the House of Lords in which parliamentarians were given the chance to ask me questions and discuss the implications for the UK. This conversation is existential for our civilization. We need more voices. So, please, do what you can to get the word out. We need people to get informed so they can meaningfully engage and ensure we have agency over AI’s development.

Grateful to @Forbes for telling our story. Catholic AI is necessary. If you feel the same way we do, please help spread the word. Together, with the guidance of the Holy Father, we can ensure the most powerful tool ever created is used to help bring people to Christ. For His glory!

I’ve been invited to the launch of Magnifica Humanitas at the Vatican on Monday. I believe this invitation is an acknowledgment of the value @magisteriumai, @VulgateAI, and the @buildersaiforum have been delivering to persons and organizations around the world. Without the Longbeard team and the support of so many of you we would not have made it this far. Grateful to all of you and I renew our commitment to continuing the work of digitizing the written patrimony of the Church and ensuring it’s available to everyone in the world. Lot’s to do and we’re going to face considerable challenges, so, please keep the work in your prayers. God bless.

It was a privilege and a lot of fun to deliver a couple of keynotes on the state of AI and its pastoral implications for the Church to the Catholic Bishops' Conference of England and Wales at their spring meeting at Villa Palazzola, outside Rome. The bishops were very engaged, and it was one of the most interesting interactive sessions I’ve had. The Church is booming in England and Wales, and I can attest that the bishops are thoroughly considering the pastoral implications of AI on their flocks. Interesting days ahead! The link to the first keynote is in the comments if you want to give it a read.

[Magisterium AI @magisteriumai]

Mass readings now available in 14 languages on Magisterium AI — including Malayalam, Vietnamese, Japanese, Korean, and Chinese. Link in the comments to check it out!

Magisterium AI now speaks A2A.

Your AI agents can delegate theological questions, search 31,000+ Magisterial documents, look up dioceses, popes, and saints, pull spiritual statistics, and fetch liturgical readings — all through the open Agent-to-Agent protocol. Google Gemini and other A2A-capable agents can register Magisterium as a peer and exchange structured tasks over the same open standard.

MCP connects tools. A2A connects agents.

For developers already familiar with our MCP server, A2A is the next step: while MCP lets AI tools access Magisterium’s knowledge, A2A lets AI agents collaborate with Magisterium as a peer in multi-agent systems. Orchestrating agents built on frameworks like LangChain or CrewAI can discover Magisterium’s capabilities and send structured tasks — receiving fully cited, machine-readable responses drawn from 31,000+ Magisterial documents, Scripture, the Church Fathers, and our structured Catholic data.

Available skills include Catholic Q&A, document search and retrieval, liturgical readings, saints of the day, our diocesan and ecclesiastical directory, our database of popes and saints, and spiritual statistics covering Catholics, priests, parishes, baptisms, seminarians, and more across dioceses worldwide.

A2A is available now on Pro, Organization, and Enterprise plans. It shares the same authentication and rate-limit pool as MCP, so if you’re already set up, getting started is straightforward.

Full documentation is available at the link in the comments.

Very grateful to Robert Duncan and @CatholicNewsSvc for the conversation. Robert’s new show Vatican Access is really good and he is a natural host. He intuitively knows when to press for details, even when they’re uncomfortable. Be sure to tune in! Link in comments.
