Silicon Valley takes its AI pitch to the pope - politico.eu
Overview
Senior executives from major technology firms and Western diplomats quietly engaged Vatican officials as Pope Leo XIV prepared his first encyclical, pressing for influence over how the church addresses AI and related ethical questions. The encyclical, released May 15, outlines five ways AI could 'warp' humanity and calls for slowing development and stronger safeguards — language industry outreach may have helped shape. That prior engagement increases the likelihood the Vatican's guidance will resonate with both tech leaders and policymakers worldwide.
