Pope Leo XIV Warns Artificial Intelligence Could Threaten Humanity and Modern Warfare
May 27, 2026
In his historic, newly released first encyclical, titled Magnifica Humanitas (“Magnificent Humanity”), Pope Leo XIV delivered a sweeping, urgent warning against the unchecked rise of artificial intelligence. Comparing the sudden, world-altering scale of AI to the birth of nuclear energy, the American-born Pontiff demanded a global disarmament of the technology before opaque algorithms and billionaire tech moguls strip humanity of its basic dignity and control over life and death.
The Vatican’s intervention marks a definitive stand against allowing Silicon Valley corporations to dictate the future of global labor, warfare, and human worth.
The Pope criticized an intellectual milieu where developers are driven by commercial survival, pride, and greed, warning that concentrated private control over data and digital infrastructure is deepening global economic inequality and creating new forms of dehumanization.
PUT HUMANITY BEFORE THE ALGORITHM.
