Pope Leo XIV released his first encyclical, "Magnifica Humanitas," on May 25, 2026, calling for regulation, transparency, and ethical frameworks to govern AI and protect human dignity. The document frames AI as a symptom of deeper issues—concentrated power, eroding democracy, and unconstrained technological authority—and warns of specific harms including AI-powered warfare and labor displacement.
