Pope Leo XIV dislikes AI, won’t authorise creation of AI Pope—"If we automate the whole world and only a few people have the means with which to more than just survive"~ there’s a big problem

• Pope Leo XIV has said he will not authorise the creation of an AI avatar of himself, as it would blur the lines between truth and fiction.
• The Pope also noted that he is concerned with AI’s impact on human dignity and jobs.
• If automation replaces too many people and only a few can work, that could be a “huge problem” the Pope said.
