Today, Pope Leo XIV released his first encyclical, Magnifica humanitas, on safeguarding the human person in the time of artificial intelligence.

The Holy Father writes on the inviolable dignity of every person, the call to remain profoundly human in an era of rapid technological change, and the moral imperative for technology to serve peace and the common good.

Read the full encyclical and prayerfully consider its teaching for our time.
