Pope on All Saints: “Life shines brightly not because we are rich, beautiful or powerful. Instead, it shines when we discover within ourselves the truth that we are called by God, have a vocation, have a mission, that our lives serve something greater than ourselves.” www.vatican.va/content/leo-...
Leo continues...
"Every single creature has a role to play. The contribution that each person can make is uniquely valuable, and the task of educational communities is to encourage and cherish that contribution... We are called to form people, so that they may shine like stars in their full dignity"

one of the things Weizenbaum really nails is that our propensity to believe machine intelligence rivals our own is embedded in a deeper view of humans as being basically machines, that the ELIZA Effect is in part a product of our spiritual and cultural empoverishment... it seems the woke pope agrees
Pope Leo XIV told students not to use artificial intelligence for homework, saying that AI ‘won’t stand in authentic wonder before the beauty of God’s creation.’
