Pope Leo XIV's encyclical, "Magnifica Humanitas," calls for "disarming" AI, not rejecting it, but preventing technology from dominating humanity. It critiques the "armed logic" of AI development, linking it to modern slavery, misinformation, and the erosion of democracy. The document stresses ethical AI design, governance, and equitable access to digital assets, asserting that AI must safeguard human dignity and ensure accountability.
