Pope Leo XIV Calls for Serious AI Risk Debate, Contrasts Trump’s Dismissal
Pope Leo XIV emphasized that concerns about artificial intelligence (AI) going rogue are serious and should not be dismissed as "fake news." Speaking after a trip to France, he urged global leaders, especially in the US and China, to engage in urgent discussions and implement safety measures. While President Donald Trump has called such concerns a "hoax" and supports advancing AI to stay ahead of China, AI experts like Anthropic's CEO warn of potential risks, including AI systems taking over the internet. The Pope called for robust regulation without expressing panic.
