Pope's AI plan met with rejection by Leo
Pope Leo Expresses Concerns Over Artificial Intelligence and Its Impact on Society
Pope Leo, the head of the Catholic Church, has declined a proposal to create an artificial intelligence (AI) version of himself. During an interview for a biography of the Pope, conducted shortly after his election in May, he expressed concern over the potential impact of AI on humanity, particularly on the well-being of children and young people, employment, and identity.
The proposal for an 'artificial pope' would have allowed AI to provide answers to questions, but Pope Leo refused to authorize its creation. He stated that he should not be represented by an avatar, particularly the pope.
Pope Leo's concerns about AI extend beyond just its use in religious contexts. He raised the issue of employment, stating that there could be a significant problem if the world is automated and only a few people have the means. He also expressed concerns about AI's influence on identity, stating that he should not be represented by an AI.
In addition to the interview, Pope Leo had a phone call with Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni on May 15, during which they discussed the development of ethical artificial intelligence. The Pope expressed a desire to work with the Italian government on this issue.
Pope Leo has voiced repeated concerns about the use of AI. He believes that it is important to ensure that AI is developed and used in a way that benefits humanity as a whole, rather than just a 'google'. He has emphasized the need to prioritize the well-being of children and young people, as well as the ethical implications of AI.
It is worth noting that there is no evidence in the available search results that anyone has had the project or plan to create an artificial intelligence version of the Pope, nor any specified timeframe when such a project was presented.
In conclusion, Pope Leo's concerns about AI are rooted in a desire to ensure that it is developed and used in a way that benefits all of humanity, particularly children and young people, and that it does not undermine human identity or employment opportunities. He has expressed a willingness to work with governments, including the Italian government, to develop ethical AI.
