The Irish Times asked me to put a bit of a response together to the Pope's so-called 'AI encyclical'
Quoting Gaudium et Spes (Vatican 2), sounding like the Didache.
I am vibrating.
Here’s the text of the encyclical:
www.vatican.va/content/leo-...
In the interest of being a good professor, if you want to read the pertinent sections of Magnifica Humanitas on slavery, the "apology" and the implications for AI, skip to sections 172-181 of the Encyclical.
In Magnifica Humanitas, Pope Leo apologizes for the Doctrine of Discovery, which sanctioned colonialism & slavery, to talk about AI. Here, I thought I went off the rails in Data Empire, where I insist the Doctrine of Discovery is critical to the history of data’s power www.vatican.va/content/leo-...
This is also a generation whose entire lives have been lived in austerity, with playgrounds, youth services, libraries, community centres, high streets, etc. disappearing and disinvested.
That doesn’t get a mention in this report on Milburn’s review. And even covid seems a bit of an afterthought.

I know some of y'all are in your feelings pro and con about the encyclical but let me just say getting a Pope to admit the church was complicit and needs to be on the right side of an issue is huge for an institution responsible for a lot of really bad things.
This is the content I am here for today (Dies Sanctissimi Corporis et Sanguinis Domini Iesu Christi) and, as usual, did not know I needed it until Giacomo said/sung it…🎶🧌👹🎶…🍞🍷
Yesterday’s vestry prayer. Entering into Pentecost after the manner of Pope Leo in the Easter season, and on the eve of Magnifica Humanitas
