Trump Official Throws Shade at Pope Leo for Editorializing' About AI
Pope Leo XIV issued his first encyclical, Magnifica Humanitas: On Safeguarding the Human Person in the Time of Artificial Intelligence, warning against the use of artificial intelligence. The encyclical acknowledges that AI can be a valuable tool while urging a measured and vigilant approach to its continued use and development. The Pope emphasizes the importance of remaining human and preventing technological advances from replacing humanity. Doug Burgum, Secretary of the Interior, was asked about the Pope’s remarks during an interview. Burgum responded by questioning whether editorializing about technology is part of the Pope’s role. He redirected the conversation to electricity policy, arguing that high electricity prices stem from reliance on intermittent, weather-dependent power sources and calling for base load power.
"In the document, the Pope acknowledged that AI can be a valuable tool, but urged the need for a measured and viligant approach to its continued use and development. The pontiff also spoke of the importance of remaining human and not allowing technological advances to replace humanity."

"I mean, Secretary, even Pope Leo this weekend issuing a major document Monday focused largely on the implications of the rise of artificial intelligence, Bartiromo said. The Pope saying that this technology could make civilization less human. Why is the Pope commenting about AI right now?"
"Well, I didn't know that tech editorializing was part of the role of being Pope. But certainly, some of these states that have got very high electricity prices today, and they've got high electricity prices today because of the policies they've pursued with trying to go with intermittent, unreliable, weather-dependent sources of electricity. We've got to get back to base load power to make this whole thing work, but the future is very bright if we can make sure we can get this stuff built."
