“The relationship between the Catholic Church and art has not only been fruitful: it has been decisive.
We are not afraid to say that the Church has been the greatest producer of art in the history of humanity.”
So said Puss in Boots from Shrek to the Pope. And he’s right ofc

Antonio Banderas, representing the world
of culture, was on cloud nine to chat with Pope Leo after his speech.
To the applause of the packed giant sports and event arena in Madrid, Banderas affirmed:
„The relationship between the Catholic Church and art has not only been fruitful: it has been decisive.”
„We are not afraid to say that the Church has been the greatest producer of art in the history of humanity.”
„At the heart of this creative impulse is the one who transcends centuries, styles, and cultures, and who has certainly been the most represented figure in the history of art: Jesus Christ,” Banderas said tonight.
In a meeting that seeks to answer what does it mean to the world today to „Lift up your eyes” - the theme of the trip to Spain, Banderas said that „Art must be an alternative to all forms of violence.”
„Just as Christ himself did, the artist must act with courage and not abandon being a critical voice to society, to art itself, and to religion itself.”

It is notable how the Pope is the only religious authority in the world that wields intellectual authority even among secular people.
No one secular cares what the Bishop of Canterbury or the Grand Ayatollah have to say.

“Like nuclear energy, AI must be at the service of all and of the common good. Decisions about technology must never be separated from conscience and responsibility.”
I agree with this sentiment by @Pontifex. The Vatican and other global institutions can and must play a role in the global dialogue on AI to raise public awareness and mobilize society for the challenges ahead.

Just going through the first few paragraphs of this, I kind of saw the Tower of Babel analogy coming, but was struck by the parallel the Pope illustrates shortly after on the rebuilding of the walls of Jerusalem from the Book of Nehemiah
May 25
Humanity, created by God in all its grandeur, is today facing a pivotal choice: either to construct a new Tower of Babel or to build the city in which God and humanity dwell together. In Jesus Christ, this humanity in its grandeur becomes the Way, the Truth and the Life, opening the path for each of us to grow toward fullness. #MagnificaHumanitas

Yes, yes, very monastic and privileged of you to find God in the silence, but can you find Him in the horrid deafening cacophony?

“the challenge we currently face is not technological, but anthropological” BARS
May 22
As evidenced by the unbridled promotion and implementation of technology at the expense of human dignity, we are truly experiencing an eclipse of the sense of what it means to be human. It is imperative to recover an understanding of the true meaning and grandeur of humanity as intended by God. It is in this sense that the challenge we currently face is not technological, but anthropological, and it is my hope that the Encyclical Letter to be published within a few days will contribute to answering this challenge.

For those not following. The Pope’s first encyclical, Magnificent Humanity, is on the role of humanity in the age of AI
He chose the name Leo after author of the Catholic church’s response to the Industrial Revolution, Rerum Novarum
