Pope's Prayer Intention - November 2020
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
Do you know how much artificial intelligence is going to change your life? A lot? No. Much more than you can imagine, although it also depends on where you live. Driverless cars, robots in your home, drones delivering packages along the streets… All of this is already part of our world. It’s the present, not the future. The limits of artificial intelligence and robotics are difficult to imagine. Consequently, we need to be aware of the dangers that progress in these areas can bring: inequal opportunities, discrimination, etc. May the desire that Pope Francis expresses in his encyclical Fratelli Tutti be fulfilled: “How wonderful it would be if the growth of scientific and technological innovation could come with more equality and social inclusion!”
