@ChrisGeorgeBerg @litteraechristi No, but what’s your point?

@marro_bert @litteraechristi Are you Catholic?

So there will not be a Latin version of Magnifica Humanitas? Everyone has noticed by now that no Latin version of the new Encyclical has yet appeared. And so people have begun asking: where is the Latin text? Will there even be one? Has the Church abandoned Latin altogether? I do not speak on behalf of the Church, of course, but the reason for the absence of a Latin version is not difficult to guess. For some years now, papal encyclicals have no longer been issued with a typical edition, that is, a definitive Latin text from which all translations are made. Instead, the Holy See now publishes the various vernacular versions simultaneously. Thus the old practice of first issuing an authoritative Latin edition, from which the others would derive, has gradually fallen out of use. So then, will there be a Latin version or not? I am quite certain that one will eventually appear. But when? If previous encyclicals are any guide, the Latin translation is usually published several months later. The chief difficulty is that these newer documents make use of many modern expressions and newly coined terms, so the translator must often devise fresh renderings and even create new vocabulary. And that, naturally, takes time.

@litteraechristi @ChrisGeorgeBerg Except Leo XIII actually spoke Latin, and probably wrote the encyclical in Latin (or partly in Latin and partly in Italian. But that’s not the case anymore.

@marro_bert @ChrisGeorgeBerg An example of this is Leo XIII's Rerum Novarum. The document is over 100 years old and, although the social context has changed, the text itself remains clear and universally valid.

@ChrisGeorgeBerg @litteraechristi Because it’s a fancy way to be conservative?

@marro_bert @litteraechristi I go to a Latin mass Why do you think I do that?!

@litteraechristi @ChrisGeorgeBerg So it’s a matter of intellectual curiosity?

@marro_bert @ChrisGeorgeBerg Because many people enjoy the language itself. So it becomes interesting to see how translators will express certain modern concepts.

@litteraechristi @ChrisGeorgeBerg But why do they want to read the translation in a language they don’t speak themselves? It’s not a matter of tradition, it’s a text written in 2026.

@marro_bert @ChrisGeorgeBerg Latin is the official language of the church and there are many who want to read it in Latin.

@ChrisGeorgeBerg @litteraechristi What’s so special in the Latin version, knowing that the encyclical has been clearly written -and thought- in English?

@litteraechristi I will only hold the Latin version as authoritative. Any other translation is done in a living language that will have too much change.

@Vitellozzo Beh lui e Veltroni 😆

È abbastanza stranordinario che la persona più coinvolta in Italia nel dibattito sull'AI e il suo ruolo nella società contemporanea sia Leone XIV.

@davidetanque @Matador1337 10 punti fatti nelle 10 giornate successive 😂

@paolae21 E non hai ancora visto cosa succede quando è l’AI a impappinarsi

Allora per lavoro sto facendo un corso live da un’ora e mezza (90 minuti 90 un sequestro dura meno) sull’ai e c’è sto tizio che parla che si è già impappinato 47 volte pronunciando la parola prompt

@fiago7 The new owners have poured a lot of money in, but they are indeed a very small club. They have been in Serie A for 2 years, spending a lot of money but not much more than the late Berlusconi's Monza did a couple of years prior.

Against all odds? They’re the richest club in Italy. They worked very well but let‘s have some shame here we don‘t have to force a fairytale story everywhere because this isn’t one.

@rozanena_ @gigIionero Ma in che senso come strumento? Se scrive dei paragrafi non è uno strumento, è un coautore.

@gigIionero Voi comunque fate orecchie da mercante, ho scritto NEL MIO PERCORSO, non ho detto in tutti i percorsi universitari, mi fa piacere per te e complimenti. E ho letteralmente scritto che lo userò come strumento, non me la fa tutta l'intelligenza artificiale

@rozanena_ Speriamo che anche il resto della commissione sia d’accordo…

@kokorobitch @GeorgeR12357 Yeah, but it's a matter of scale. One thing is to check if your students have copied from each other, or Wikipedia or some shoddy pdf they found online. Another thing is to deal with the plagiarism machine, built by history's largest corporations and powered by GWs of computers.

@marro_bert @GeorgeR12357 ensuring that students learn the material is part of a teacher’s job, which, in turn, means ensuring that the work they turn in is their own. this isn’t a new concept in education, before AI you might have had to check whether a student had copied work from someone else

seeing uni lecturers say “I’m not going to turn into an AI cop” is so disheartening. it is not being a “cop” to assess whether your students have learned something - it’s being a teacher, and it’s one of your core responsibilities!!

@kokorobitch @GeorgeR12357 Is it? Keeping the class attentive and under control is one thing, controlling what students do at home when they do their homework isn't.

@GeorgeR12357 because it’s part of their job as a professor/teacher?

@LaDemonologa È la mania dell'ottimizzazione. Sono quelli che allo stadio vanno via 5 minuti prima per evitare il traffico. Di domenica pomeriggio, a metà marzo.

Giustissima osservazione, purtroppo ciò a cui assistiamo è la mentalità del "tutto e subito e possibilmente senza sforzo".

@Matador1337 La buona notizia è che almeno una delle due la perderà.

Chi ha più possibilità di vincere l'Europa League?

@stonem_____ 26 gol e 34 assist? 🤯

Lo stagista lo ha devastato e costretto al ritiro

@MagoBerlino2 Non so neanche cosa sia questo tira acqua di cui parlate

Un uomo che usa il tira acqua per pulire il vetro della doccia lo fa solo per due motivi: È innamorato o è psicopatico

@daves80 Peccato che Mourinho Camavinga lo fa diventare così

Camavinga lo abbiamo capito tutti

@LarryBundyJr I can’t find any record of a YouTube account named “JoeLizzaWWE,” nor can I find any record of a “Joe Lizza” who produces wrestling content.

An automated A.I. WWE news channel on YouTube tries to pronounce "WWE" as a word and ends up going insane!🤣
