What does a papal encyclical have to say about artificial intelligence?

Visited the farm yesterday and came across one of nature's most beautiful symbiotic relationships. Bees, I believe 𝘈𝘱𝘪𝘴 𝘮𝘦𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘧𝘦𝘳𝘢🐝 sucking nectar from a sunflower 𝘏𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘢𝘯𝘵𝘩𝘶𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘯𝘶𝘶𝘴 .🌻
In low-income communities across the Northwest Region of Cameroon, health units get built with white floor tiles. The soil beneath them is Ferralsol, a deeply weathered volcanic soil, iron-rich and distinctly red. The first rainy season stains everything. The maintenance burden falls on communities that never had the budget for it in the first place. The building fights its own environment from day one.
This is not just a design failure. It is a development failure. When you build infrastructure that the community cannot maintain, you have not built for them. You have built at them.
This is Masoro Health Center, Rwanda. Same continent, completely different decision.
The center serves over 20,000 residents within a 10 square-mile area in the foothills of the Virunga Mountain Range.  General Architecture Collaborative navigated Rwanda’s steep terrain with a series of terraces organizing curative services, preventive care, maternity services and public gathering spaces. Local brick, stone, bamboo and reed. Materials that belong to the ground they sit on and that local hands already know how to work with.
The architects hired and trained 390 local residents to construct the project, over half of them women who are rarely invited to participate in constructing the built environment.  They left with skills, income, and access to future work in the construction industry.
The building created economic activity during construction and left behind a workforce after it. That is what development through architecture looks like.

@ahmednasirlaw He spoke in Parliament. A space where he has experience and where he honed his oratory skills. He was not caught off-guard; he went there specifically to speak to this matter and so he was prepared.
Duale knew what to say, how to say it and what to mean.
Don't allow yourself to "die for Kenya," if such a thing even exists. You'll die, be buried, and the country will carry on. No nation is healed by the needless loss of its young people. The last thing your family wants is to lose you for a cause that changes nothing. Mũkua tũhũ.

So fellas, if you've eaten a watery, fibrous kienyeji avocado with kasukari kwa umbali, wewe jua tu it's a West Indian/Florida variety. I can tell them apart from afar.
We eat Pinkerton and sell Fuertes (tasty too) and Hass (fetches higher prices because of its pebbly skin).
While Ebola is the new buzz word, I want to ask 'proponent of the robust Kenyan health system" to account for the 30k natal deaths we recorded last year alone.
To all the geniuses with similar retorts, do you think exposing Adani while in France ama leading resistance while in Israel carries the same risk as a month long kasongo cartoon spree while in Kenya? Does chanting must go in a crowd of drunks? gov shouldnt be killing anyone but
4 million for an MCA seat with a salary of 144,000 per month? To recover 4 million you'd need atleast 4 years, what's the ROI here that a person should invest on you?
