ROME: Pope Leo XIV on Monday called for artificial intelligence to serve human dignity, strengthen peace and be guided by wisdom and charity.
In a message to the first AI4Peace conference in Rome, the pontiff said technological development requires more than technical expertise and must be directed by a vision inspired by concern for humanity.
Addressing artificial intelligence in a world marked by conflict and division, Pope Leo said its development and use should contribute to peace and promote the dignity of every person.
He urged participants to examine ways AI can foster dialogue, reconciliation and solidarity among peoples, helping turn technological innovation into instruments of peace.
The pope’s message comes amid debate over the rapid development of artificial intelligence and its potential impact on society.
Recent incidents demonstrating AI’s expanding capabilities, together with warnings from technology sector experts, have prompted calls for greater caution, including proposals to slow development and introduce tighter regulation.
Pope Leo emphasized that artificial intelligence should remain guided by wisdom, charity and concern for the common good.
