Vatican’s AI Forum Masks Apostasy with Technological Humanism
Catholic News Agency reports on a November 7, 2025, event hosted by the Pontifical Gregorian University, where antipope Leo XIV urged Catholics to lead in “ethical AI development.” The Builders AI Forum gathered 160 organizations to discuss artificial intelligence in education, healthcare, and business through the lens of conciliar sect’s “social teaching.” Antipope Leo declared AI development a “profoundly ecclesial endeavor,” framing technology as a tool for “evangelization” and “integral human development.” MIT researcher Jose Pacheco invoked the emotional testimony of Megan Garcia, whose son committed suicide after chatbot interactions, to emphasize the “urgency” of ethical discussions.
