Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Pope Leo Warns AI Must Be 'Disarmed'
Caption: Pope Leo Warns AI Must Be ‘Disarmed’. Pope Leo XIV has issued the first major teaching document of his papacy, warning that artificial intelligence must be “disarmed”. The Pope said he deliberately used strong language to highlight the growing dangers linked to AI technology. The document, known as an encyclical, also included one of the Vatican’s strongest apologies for the Catholic Church’s historical role in slavery. Leo wrote that it was impossible not to feel “deep sorrow” for the suffering endured by enslaved people and said he was asking forgiveness on behalf of the Church. The Pope linked the issue of slavery to modern concerns surrounding artificial intelligence, warning against what he described as “new digital slaveries”. He suggested the world risks normalising exploitation again through both the production and use of AI systems. The document warns humanity is facing a major moral crossroads as technology continues to rapidly evolve. Instructions: THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
