"Algorithms lack the spark": Pope Leo XIV calls on church to ally with artists against AI

The Vatican has opened an unexpected front in the AI debate, with Pope Leo XIV urging the Catholic Church to forge an alliance with artists and creatives to resist what he calls the spiritual hollowness of algorithmic culture. In a striking reversal of the Church's often cautious stance on technology, the pontiff framed artificial intelligence not as a moral hazard to regulate but as a fundamental threat to human creativity and meaning-making that demands active ecclesiastical opposition. The call signals a potential realignment in global conversations about AI's limits, moving beyond data privacy and labor concerns to something more primal: whether machines can ever replicate the sacred work of artistic creation.
