Taking all this into account, there is broad consensus that AI marks a new and significant phase in humanity’s engagement with technology, placing it at the heart of what Pope Francis has described as an “epochal change.”[2] Its impact is felt globally and in a wide range of areas, including interpersonal relationships, education, work, art, healthcare, law, warfare, and international relations. In an inter-disciplinary and cross-disciplinary key, they are urged to engage “with wisdom and creativity”[156] in careful research on this phenomenon, helping to draw out the salutary potential within the various fields of science and reality, and guiding them always towards ethically sound applications that clearly serve the cohesion of our societies and the common good, reaching new frontiers in the dialogue between faith and reason. Francis, Address to the Participants in the “Minerva Dialogues”(27 March 2023): AAS 115 (2023), 464, where the Holy Father affirmed the growth in consensus “on the need for development processes to respect such values as inclusion, transparency, security, equity, privacy and reliability,” and also welcomed “the efforts of international organizations to regulate these technologies so that they promote genuine progress, contributing, that is, to a better world and an integrally higher quality of life.”
