Trump Has “No Cards” in Iran as Deal Collapses and U.S. Continues Strikes
"Artificial intelligence needs to be disarmed. The word is strong, I know, but deliberately chosen because this moment needs words capable of attracting attention, awakening consciences, and indicating paths forward for humanity. Disarmed, freed from logics that turn it into an instrument of domination, exclusion and death."
The first American Pope released his inaugural encyclical titled Magnifica Humanitas, a 42,000-word open letter warning of new forms of slavery tied to artificial intelligence. Pope Leo XIV called for the technology's disarming, using deliberately strong language to draw attention to AI's dangers. The Pope positioned himself as a global voice on technology ethics as political leaders remain largely silent.
