Pope Leo XIV Urges Serious Discussion on AI Risks, Contradicts Trump’s Dismissal
Pope Leo XIV emphasized that concerns about artificial intelligence (AI) posing risks to humanity are serious and should not be dismissed as "fake news," contradicting US President Donald Trump's dismissal of such fears as a "hoax." The Pope urged global leaders, especially in the US and China, to engage in dialogue and implement safety measures. He also criticized Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang's opposition to government regulation despite announcing AI guardrails. While acknowledging the risks, Pope Leo said he is not alarmed and called for ongoing ethical discussion and regulation.
