PARIS, Sept 25 — Pope Leo XIV cautioned that humanity faces danger in an "AI paradise of machines" during his France trip. Thousands welcomed him upon arrival, amid global concerns over artificial intelligence. He stressed the need for education in ethical discernment to avoid losing humanity amidst technological advances. The pope's visit comes amid France's upcoming presidential election and rising right-wing anti-immigration sentiment.
France has faced criticism for banning religious symbols in public spaces, prompting the pontiff to urge "authentic secularity" that maintains dialogue between state and religious institutions. Addressing global issues, he expressed concern over scientific and technological ventures promoting genetic manipulation and human organ trade, and urged France to remain a "tireless champion of peace."
