Magnifica Humanitas: Disarming AI

B2Upper-intermediateSeptember 18, 202641 min

What does it mean to disarm artificial intelligence? Steve Guerra welcomes back Glenn Amorosia to discuss Magnifica Humanitas and the place of AI in Catholic social teaching. Their conversation connects human dignity, the common good, solidarity, and subsidiarity with questions about corporate power and technological change. From Leo XIII and Rerum Novarum to Vatican II, they explore the tradition behind these ideas, the contrast between Babel and Nehemiah, and whether a new church council could help address the challenges ahead.
