Pope Leo XIV warned on Friday that artificial intelligence and scientific advances risk undermining human dignity if they are not guided by conscience, as he opened his first official state visit to France. Addressing French President Emmanuel Macron and diplomats at the Elysee Palace, Leo said he had made artificial intelligence a central subject of his first encyclical, warning against losing humanity amid what he called a “paradise of machines” that could invade and condition daily life. He urged ethical discernment and respect for human freedom and dignity, while also cautioning against treating science as capable of eliminating all suffering. Leo further criticised what he described as profit-driven developments involving genetic manipulation, surrogacy, organ trafficking and assisted death, saying protection of human life was a shared responsibility. The four-day visit includes stops at UNESCO, Notre-Dame Cathedral, Lourdes and Metz. #popeleoXIV, #popeleo, #pope, #vatican, #ai,
