AI Governance: Pope Leo XIV has approved an interdicasterial Vatican commission on artificial intelligence, created to study AI’s “potential effects on human beings” and protect human dignity as the technology accelerates. The new body brings together seven Vatican offices, with the Dicastery for Promoting Integral Human Development coordinating its first year. Encyclical Countdown: The commission lands as the pope prepares his first encyclical on AI—expected to frame AI as the moral and labor challenge of a new “industrial revolution,” and to stress that people must stay at the center. Human-Centered Finance: In a separate address to Italian banks, Leo warned that algorithmic systems can make people feel “abandoned,” urging charity to guide financial decisions. Global Outreach: He also confirmed a September trip to France, including a stop at UNESCO in Paris amid budget strain after U.S. withdrawal.
