emphasizing its role for the common good rather than profit. <\/li>\n<li>He denounced the &#8220;culture of power&#8221; driving the AI race, particularly in the development of remote warfare, stating that it is not permissible to entrust lethal decisions to AI systems. <\/li>\n<li>Leo issued warnings about the concentration of AI power and data in the hands of a few, highlighting potential dangers, especially to children and the vulnerable, and called for external regulation.<\/li>\n<li>The pope urged AI developers and political leaders to use ethical and spiritual guidelines to ensure technology serves humans instead of degrading them.<\/li>\n<li>&#8220;Magnifica Humanitas&#8221; is expected to become a benchmark in the debate over AI, with experts predicting it will influence policymakers, researchers, and the public on AI\u2019s impact.<\/li>\n<li>The encyclical denounces AI\u2019s role in accelerating the &#8220;normalization of war,&#8221; calls for transparency and accountability in AI decision-making processes, and extends the Catholic Church\u2019s social justice teachings to the digital revolution.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pope calls for regulation of AI in manifesto that ponders the future of humanity https:\/\/www.scrippsnews.com\/science-and-tech\/artificial-intelligence\/pope-calls-for-robust-regulation-of-ai-in-manifesto-that-ponders-the-future-of-humanity&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":219681,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/ewscripps.brightspotcdn.com\/dims4\/default\/fdc6975\/2147483647\/strip\/true\/crop\/1024x538+0+0\/resize\/1200x630!\/quality\/90\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fewscripps-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2F75%2Ff0%2Fac3488494f0da54b132c42daa880%2Fap26145360853645.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[20],"class_list":["post-219680","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-artificial-intelligence","tag-artificial-intelligence"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/219680"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=219680"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/219680\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":219682,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/219680\/revisions\/219682"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/219681"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=219680"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=219680"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=219680"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
