  "account": "Pope Leo XIV has cautioned against the potential dangers of artificial intelligence during his four-day visit to France. The Pope, accompanied by French President Emmanuel Macron, emphasized the importance of not losing humanity in the midst of technological advancements. He spoke at the Élysée Palace in Paris, alongside French government and Catholic officials, urging the protection of human values and dignity as AI becomes increasingly influential. The Pope’s visit is anticipated to draw large crowds, with over 500,000 people expected to attend a Mass in Paris on Saturday. Security has been heightened around key sites in the capital, and an altar has been set up at the Place de la Concorde for the service. Pope Leo arrived in Paris on Friday, greeted by Macron, and is set to travel through the city in his popemobile. While Macron is unlikely to attend the Pope’s Masses due to France’s strict separation of church and state, other French political figures, including Marine Le Pen and Édouard Philippe, are expected to attend. The Pope is scheduled to meet with 80,000 young people at the Stade de France and another 150,000 at the Catholic sanctuary of Lourdes in the Pyrenees. On Monday, Pope Leo will conclude his visit in Metz, honoring Robert Schuman, a founder of the European Union and a Catholic who is being considered for beatification.",
