Magnifica Humanitas: Pope Leo the Fourteenth's First Encyclical Takes On AI, and Anthropic's Cofounder Helps Launch It
Pope Leo the Fourteenth publishes his first encyclical today on the protection of human dignity in the age of artificial intelligence, deliberately signed on the one hundred and thirty-fifth anniversary of Rerum Novarum. The launch event at the Vatican's Synod Hall features Anthropic cofounder Christopher Olah as a lay speaker, marking the first time an AI company founder has ever participated in a papal encyclical rollout. Chris and Laura unpack the themes, the strategic timing, the geopolitical positioning, and what Silicon Valley should expect next.
Hosted by Chris and Laura.
