La inteligencia artificial ya influye en muchos ámbitos de nuestra vida y afecta a la convivencia humana, según ha señalado el papa, además de haber cambiado la forma en que se libran las guerras.

@FurkanGozukara Important question:

Massive bombshell. Anthropic co-founder Chris Olah warns that AI will displace human labor on a catastrophic global scale. He confirms tech elites have absolutely no mechanism to share the wealth, leaving the global poor completely abandoned to suffer. He is 100% accurate.

BREAKING: Pope Leo XIV enrages MAGA by formally apologizing for the Church's role in legitimizing slavery and for failing to condemn it for centuries, calling it a "wound in Christian memory." This is truly historic and Republicans are furious... “It is impossible not to feel deep sorrow when contemplating the immense suffering and humiliation endured by so many in stark contrast to their immeasurable dignity as persons infinitely loved by the Lord. For this, in the name of the church, I sincerely ask for pardon," Leo wrote in “Magnifica Humanitas,” his much-anticipated first encyclical. While previous popes have apologized for the Christian involvement in the trans-Atlantic slave trade, none has ever delivered such a direct apology for the broader role that the Church played in the survival of that deeply evil institution. The Vatican at times gave European monarchs express permission to colonize and enslave foreign peoples, slathering their brutal crimes against humanity in a veneer of Christian piety. In the 15th century, Pope Nicholas V went so far as to give the Portugese throne authority to subjugate and rob “Saracens, and pagans, and other infidels, and enemies of the name of Christ” as well as "reduce their persons to perpetual slavery.” Leo took that history on head-first— "Already in the early modern period, the Apostolic See of Rome, responding to the requests of sovereigns, intervened several times in order to regulate and legitimize forms of subjugation, and, in certain cases, including the enslavement of ‘infidels,'" he wrote. "In the development of her doctrine, the Church has gradually come to a deeper awareness of the gravity of these issues," Leo stated. "It is true that past events cannot be judged anachronistically, as though the moral criteria that matured over time had always been available. Yet neither can we deny or diminish the delay with which both society and the Church came to denounce the scourge of slavery." He added that it "took eighteen centuries" for the Church to "explicitly" recognize its "full incompatibility with slavery." “This constitutes a wound in Christian memory, one from which we cannot consider ourselves detached,” Leo added. The pronouncement has already been met with outrage from many members of the online right, who believe that the Western world should never apologize for anything it's done, not even slavery. Social media is aflurry with MAGA accusations that Leo has succumbed to "suicidal empathy" and "white guilt." These are the same people who believe that the Civil War was fought for "states' rights" and that the Confederacy was an admirable endeavor. “For descendants of enslaved persons, this is once again a much needed apology from the pope,” said Anthea Butler, senior fellow at Oxford University's Koch History Center. She added that the apology empowers Leo to “speak to the current issues of technological enslavement.” The Pope's slavery apology was part of a much lengthier document whose title translates to "Magnificent Humanity." It's largely focused on humanity's roles and responsibilities as artificial intelligence reshapes the world around us. Leo connected the topic to slavery by warning that these emergent technologies are leading to new forms of human exploitation and debasement, as neocolonialist labor practices are implemented to provide the rare minerals necessary to build AI chips. The situation in the Congo is particularly dire, with untold masses of men, women, and children being paid next to nothing — and in some cases nothing at all — to work in inhumane, unhealthy conditions mining cobalt. While so many of our world leaders are failing to confront the challenges and evils of the modern world, Pope Leo is boldly leading the way. Please ❤️ and share if you're a big fan of Pope Leo!

⚠️ Y hay otro detalle que casi nadie está señalando: El Vaticano no buscó a Palantir, ni a OpenAI, ni a Google, ni a xAI para construir el discurso moral de “Magnifica Humanitas”. Eligió a Anthropic, precisamente la empresa que intenta proyectarse como la IA “responsable” y más distante de la integración militar total. ¿Por qué? Porque hoy la batalla ya no es solo tecnológica. Es moral. Las compañías de IA entienden algo crucial: quien controle la narrativa ética sobre la automatización, el desempleo masivo y la dignidad humana controlará también las futuras regulaciones y la legitimidad política del nuevo orden digital. La IA no solo compite por inteligencia. Compite por autoridad moral. ✝️ Viva Cristo Rey

@liz_churchill10 x.com/gerardsans/sta…

Incredible… Pope Leo has written a 42,000 word Manifesto speaking about AI… “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…”

Pope Leo’s Magnifica Humanitis is such an interesting read, especially for those working in the AI industry. I’m not a Catholic, but there are so many points like this to reflect on: “Developers bear a particular ethical and spiritual responsibility, for every design choice reflects a vision of humanity” vatican.va/content/leo-xi…

@BluRadioCo Important context:

El papa León XIV durante la presentación de su primera encíclica “Magnifica Humanitas”: “Me han llegado otras voces muy inquietantes sobre sistemas de armas cada vez más autónomos, prácticamente fuera del alcance humano para su control efectivo. Escucho relatos muy preocupantes sobre algoritmos que pueden bloquear el acceso a la atención médica, el empleo y la seguridad basándose en datos viciados por prejuicios e injusticias. Y he escuchado el silencio de quienes no tienen voz cuando se toman decisiones. Decisiones que probablemente generan nuevas formas de exclusión y sufrimiento. De esta escucha surgió una convicción inquietante expresada en ‘Magnifica Humanitas’: la inteligencia artificial debe ser desarmada. Sé que la palabra es fuerte, pero la elegí deliberadamente porque en este momento se requieren palabras capaces de captar la atención, despertar conciencias e indicar caminos para la humanidad”. #VocesySonidos
