Cardinal Tagle warns of the risks of artificial intelligence

Cardinal Luis Antonio Tagle highlighted the risks of artificial intelligence manipulation, emphasizing its potential for good rather than misinformation. Speaking at the 450th anniversary of the Diocese of Macau, he questioned how the power of AI developers is being used. Tagle shared personal experiences of being misrepresented online, illustrating the confusion between reality and manipulated content. He affirmed the Church's support for technology while urging humanity in communication. His remarks align with Pope Leo XIV's focus on AI for peace and solidarity. Tagle also linked current conflicts to rising tribalism and discrimination, advocating for dialogue over violence. Recently appointed as the first Asian dean of the College of Cardinals, Tagle is seen as a potential papal successor.
