With A.I. and Wordle, Pope Leo Proves to be a Pope of the Digital Age

Brian Green, director, technology ethics, quoted by the New York Times.

Motoko Rich reporting for the New York Times, notes that Leo XIV addresses technology’s promise and pitfalls, but has yet to lay out a vision for how AI might be harnessed for spiritual connections, or to protect the vulnerable from harm.

“He sees this as an issue where hopefully he can make a difference,” noted Brian Green, director, technology ethics. “But making a difference entails getting everybody to think about these issues and how it applies to them in their particular context.”
