Pope Leo XIV has issued an encyclical, "Magnifica Humanitas," drawing parallels between the current AI revolution and the Industrial Revolution. He invokes his predecessor Pope Leo XIII's 1891 encyclical "Rerum Novarum," which addressed the social and economic challenges of industrialization. The new document aims to guide the Church's response to AI, advocating for a just social order and potentially influencing economic policy and the organization of work, similar to how "Rerum Novarum" shaped labor rights and inspired movements like distributism and cooperatives.
