By Pope Leo XIV. The Pope’s first encyclical speaks to one of the most urgent questions of our time: What does it mean to remain fully human in the age of artificial intelligence? With clarity and depth, offers a Christian response to the rise of digital technocracy and power, showing how faith, reason, and the tradition of Catholic social teaching can guide society through rapid technological change. Drawing on Scripture, Church history, and the social teaching of the modern papacy, explores how AI is reshaping work, education, family life, politics, warfare, and public truth. While acknowledging the remarkable potential of AI, warns against systems that reduce people to data points, labor units, or instruments of control, and offers a hopeful vision rooted in dignity, solidarity, justice, and the common good.
