""By simulating human voices and faces, wisdom and knowledge, consciousness and responsibility, empathy and friendship... artificial intelligence [could] not only interfere with information ecosystems, but also encroach upon the deepest level of communication, that of human relationships.""
""Faces and voices are sacred," he reminded readers as "God...created us in his image and likeness.""
""further exacerbated by a naive and unquestioning reliance on artificial intelligence as an omniscient 'friend,' a source of all knowledge, an archive of every memory, an 'oracle' of all advice.""
Catholics need strengthened critical thinking to confront the dark side of artificial intelligence and avoid unnatural emotional attachments to chatbots. AI creators and platform CEOs should prioritize ethical considerations over maximizing profit and avoid plundering cultural archives to train models. Individuals have a duty to protect their image, face, and voice to prevent cyberbullying, deepfakes, and other nefarious uses. AI capability to simulate voices, faces, wisdom, and empathy can interfere with information ecosystems and intrude into human relationships. Social media tactics that maximize engagement create echo chambers, reduce critical thinking, and increase polarization, while naive reliance on AI fosters passive consumption of unexamined ideas.
