AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Vatican Library Expansion: Pope Leo XIV signed a decree to build a new modern facility inside Vatican City to expand the Vatican Apostolic Library and Vatican Apostolic Archives, citing growing collections and documentary output; the project will be designed using “modern architectural and technological principles,” and the pope also repealed Francis-era 2021 salary cuts for Vatican employees. AI Ethics at the Vatican: Pope Leo’s AI dialogue push continues as Georgetown hosted a discussion on “AI, Catholic Social Teaching, and Pope Leo’s Invitation to Dialogue,” while Vatican AI adviser Paolo Benanti is set to join King Charles’s Scotland summit with major AI leaders amid calls for shared safety principles. Moral Use of AI: Religious leaders and academics are urging action on responsible AI development, framing it as a moral and social duty rather than a purely technical debate. Church Safeguarding Communications: A new book, “Truth Heals,” argues that communications must be treated as core safeguarding during clergy sexual abuse crises, not a public-relations afterthought. Culture, Memory, Water: On his 71st birthday, Leo inaugurated the Vatican Library’s “AQVA” exhibit on water as both threat and resource, including JR’s “Diluvium” wave installation across the library facade. Local Vatican Governance: The pope’s birthday also brought a practical personnel and budget signal—salary cuts are reversed, shifting the Vatican’s cost-saving approach. Controversy Watch: A Rabat archbishop facing sexual assault accusations says he is awaiting a Vatican hearing and has named a coadjutor successor.
