In his 2024 World Day of Peace message, Pope Francis voices concern over Artificial Intelligence (AI) and urges an international ethical agreement for its development and application.

He emphasizes AI's role in upholding human dignity and contributing to peace, cautioning against its misuse for profit or power.
Pope Francis also highlights AI's potential to deepen inequalities and fuel conflicts if it strays from ethical guidelines.

Acknowledging the benefits AI brings to industries like manufacturing, transportation, and data analysis, the Pope expressed apprehension about AI's potential to unfairly benefit only a limited group of people, raising concerns about the risk of widespread unemployment.
