00:00Can AI bring you closer to your God?
00:02The Pope is weighing in on the rise of AI.
00:04In an official paper, Pope Leo XIV says humanity needs protection in the age of AI.
00:10He warns about job loss, AI-powered weapons, and kids being exposed to harmful AI-generated
00:16content.
00:16The Pope says humans need to stay in control of AI.
00:19This is part of a growing global debate by religious leaders trying to deal with the
00:23rise of AI in society and in faith.
00:25For example, there's an AI Jesus offering advice in paid video calls, or a robot monk
00:32explaining Buddhist teachings.
00:34Some churches are experimenting with AI for sermons and community work in Latin America,
00:39whereas in Muslim communities scholars are asking whether AI is even allowed.
00:43Critics worry.
00:44If people start turning to AI for answers, could religious leaders lose their moral authority?
00:50And there are other risks.
00:51AI can sound very convincing, even when it's wrong.
00:54Plus, do we want spiritual guidance to come with a price tag?
