First American Pope Leo XIV Highlights AI’s Ethical Challenges in Inaugural Address

Pope LEO XIV, born Robert Prevost, has identified artificial intelligence as a critical challenge to human dignity and labor justice during his first papal address. The Chicago-born pontiff’s remarks extend the Catholic Church’s recent focus on AI ethics, building upon initiatives started under Pope Francis.
Prevost’s unexpected election as the first American pope defied global prediction markets and drew congratulations from former U.S. President Donald Trump. The mathematician-turned-pontiff emphasized AI’s societal implications without directly referencing cryptocurrency markets or blockchain technology.
