Vatican Journey to France

Pope Leo XIV visits UNESCO

Catholic IntelligenceUpdated 1 min read

Pope Leo XIV visited the UNESCO headquarters in Paris to address the challenges of communication, education, and artificial intelligence. During his visit, the Pope noted that while communication has become faster, it is not necessarily more truthful, and abundant information does not equate to wisdom.

The Pope stated that artificial intelligence can correlate data but cannot answer questions regarding the meaning of human life, which is rooted in lived experience. He suggested that the challenges of communication and education make the search for truth a matter of social justice and historical equity.

In his address, the Pope proposed a humanism based on three basic human experiences: filiality, necessity, and magnificence. He described filiality as the experience of being part of a chain of generations that humans do not control, noting that people exist in the world without having chosen to come into it.
