Probably the pull quote of the (short) thing for me. It lines up exactly with my personal experience, and is probably one of the biggest overall dangers of this technology aside from mass unemployment and making my RAM cost too much.
I'm very glad that Pope Leo continues to speak about AI in such clear ways. It's obvious he and/or the Curia really get it and the costs and dangers it has.
"if religious leaders worry/are motivated to speak by the fact ..."
Yes, IMO. But the topic is, or almost is, too complicated for the general public.
I just (right now) explained the document to a cathechist and her mind went to how video games harm the youth, which is tangential. I then explained "do not renounce to your ability to think" applied to feeds and fake news, which caused confusion; discussion is required for that. Again, this is a devote interested in education, I can _fear_ imagine how it would go with most people.
before A.I - video calls replaced in-person - coz you could tell emotions from faces
now with A.I - we're going back to an in-person world
you also look at entertainment - what's getting scarce & more valuable - live entertainment e.g Netflix with the skyscraper, live sports, concerts etc - due to live events being more authentic
you also see even Hollywood stars buying into sports team & sports team valuation going up
us humans - we only like the artificial - to a limited extent - however the A.I people lack empathy & don't know shit about how humans work
To be, not to pretend to be. We need more physical interaction, which is more consecuential than virtual interaction, when possible. There are ample opportunities

I agree with the Pope's message, but I wonder if religious leaders worry/are motivated to speak by the fact that that AI might "steal" their audience.
I wonder what e.g. the Ayatollah of Iran would say about the use of AI. Is there an AyatollahGPT?

If only he had the power to excommunicate entities from the internet.

That's a beauty.
