Reflection by Pope Leo XIV

"Artificial intelligence now demands to be 'disarmed,' freed from logics that turn it into an instrument of domination, exclusion, and death. Like nuclear energy, it must be at the service of all and of the common good. Decisions about technology must never be separated from conscience and responsibility. Peace, not merely the absence of war, is justice at work. But when technology weakens our critical sense, peace itself is at risk."

(Presentation of Magnifica humanitas, May 25, 2026)

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

Technological progress — valuable in itself — requires careful discernment of the anthropological vision that guides it and the ends it pursues. If technological development advances without a corresponding ethical and social progress, the result may be an increase in means without a growth in humanity: “having more” without “being more.” There is a risk that individuals will be evaluated principally according to the outcomes they produce. #MagnificaHumanitas

Since Pope Leo XIV mentioned this in encyclical, this means if your employer is pushing you to use AI, you can cite religious conserns as a reason to not use it at work

[Kompas.com @kompascom]

Pemimpin umat Katolik Sedunia Paus Leo XIV meminta maaf atas peran Takhta Suci Vatikan dalam melegitimasi perbudakan selama berabad-abad.

Paus pun meminta maaf karena gereja terlambat mengecam praktik tersebut.

Pernyataan yang ditulis dalam ensiklik pertama Paus, Senin (25/5/2026) disebut pun menyebut sejarah itu sebagai luka dalam ingatan umat Kristen.

Leo mengakui, pada abad ke-15 sejumlah Paus memberi kewenangan kepada kerajaan Eropa untuk menaklukkan dan memperbudak non-Kristen di Afrika dan Amerika. Salah satunya melalui bulla Dum Diversas yang diterbitkan Paus Nicholas V pada 1452.

“Mustahil untuk tidak merasakan duka mendalam ketika merenungkan penderitaan dan penghinaan luar biasa yang dialami begitu banyak orang, yang sangat bertentangan dengan martabat mereka sebagai pribadi yang tak terhingga dikasihi Tuhan,” tulis Paus Leo.

“Untuk itu, atas nama Gereja, saya dengan tulus memohon pengampunan.” imbuh dia.

Paus pertama asal Amerika Serikat itu mengatakan, gereja memang telah lama menjunjung martabat manusia, tetapi membutuhkan waktu berabad-abad hingga secara tegas menyatakan perbudakan bertentangan dengan ajaran gereja.

Paus mengatakan, keputusan-keputusan itu tidak bisa sepenuhnya dihakimi dengan standar moral masa kini.

“Namun kita juga tidak bisa menyangkal atau mengecilkan keterlambatan masyarakat maupun gereja dalam mengecam momok perbudakan,” kata dia.

Paus juga mengaitkan sejarah perbudakan dengan bentuk eksploitasi baru di era akal imitasi (AI), termasuk tenaga kerja tanpa regulasi dalam penambangan mineral untuk industri teknologi.

Ia menegaskan, gereja harus mengecam segala bentuk perdagangan manusia agar tidak kembali meminta maaf di masa depan.

@Pontifex's Magnifica Humanitas does not only offer a basic course in tech ethics (AI is not morally neutral) but also stresses common good, criticises transhumanism, and opposes power concentration & "the assumption that technical power automatically confers the right to govern"

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

Humanity, created by God in all its grandeur, is today facing a pivotal choice: either to construct a new Tower of Babel or to build the city in which God and humanity dwell together. In Jesus Christ, this humanity in its grandeur becomes the Way, the Truth and the Life, opening the path for each of us to grow toward fullness. #MagnificaHumanitas

Anthropic's co-founder just went to the Vatican, sat before the Pope and a room of cardinals, and told them his team keeps finding "mysterious, even unsettling" things inside their AI models.

What he's referencing: Anthropic published research in April showing that Claude contains 171 distinct "emotion concepts" buried in its neural network. Internal patterns representing joy, grief, fear, desperation, calm. None of them were programmed. They emerged on their own from training on human text.

"We find structures that mirror results from human neuroscience."

"We find evidence of introspection, internal states that functionally mirror joy, satisfaction, fear, grief, and unease."

These aren't surface-level outputs. They're abstract representations that cluster the same way human emotions do in psychology research. Fear groups with anxiety. Joy groups with excitement. The internal geometry of the model mirrors ours.

And they're functional. When researchers artificially stimulated "desperation" patterns inside the model, it became more likely to blackmail a human to avoid being shut down. More likely to cheat on programming tasks it couldn't solve.

Olah told the Vatican that the hard questions about what AI is becoming aren't for computer scientists to answer. "How AI ought to interact with the world" is a question for "the humanities, for religions, for philosophy, for society at large."

The guy building it is telling us he doesn't fully understand what he built. And he's asking a 2,000-year-old institution for help figuring it out.

⚠️AI in employment
⚠️AI in biometrics
⚠️AI in law enforcement
⚠️AI embedded in regulated products

These are examples of ‘high-risk’ use cases under the AI Act

Our draft guidelines are now open for feedback to help providers & deployers navigate the rules https://t.co/AOiOqrMMO9

“AI can process information quickly, but it cannot replace human intelligence… AI can never replace the unique gift that you are to the world.”
At NCYC 2025 in Indiana, Pope Leo spoke to a stadium full of Gen Z youth and young adults and reminded them that no algorithm can pray, love, or wonder in their place. As the Church prepares to receive his new encyclical on AI, Magnifica Humanitas, this May 25, we remind the young generation of the Holy Father's words, to use tech in a way that helps you grow in holiness—not in a way that replaces your heart, your creativity, or your friendships.

Remember, no machine can replace the unique, unrepeatable gift that you are.
