“Safeguarding the human”: Voices on Pope Leo’s encyclical

How should we interpret Pope Leo XIV’s new encyclical on artificial intelligence? Academics at the Catholic University of Eichstätt-Ingolstadt view “Magnifica humanitas” not merely as a church document, but as a contribution to a debate that concerns us all: Who decides on digital technology? Who benefits from it—and who is harmed by it? The reactions from Eichstätt show just how differently the Pope’s first encyclical can be interpreted.
