posted 19 Jan 2024
Paolo Benanti, a monk and AI expert from the Vatican, emphasizes the virtues of artificial intelligence, citing its origin from human intelligence. Yet, he underscores the necessity for its ethical management.
In his annual peace message for 2024, Benanti urged global leaders to establish an international agreement on the ethical use of AI.
He recognizes the role of AI in making healthcare more affordable and accessible, while warning about the risks of biased data. His stance resonates with Bill Gates' belief in AI's potential to forge a fairer society.
Benanti is also a member of the United Nations’ Advisory Body on Artificial Intelligence and serves as an advisor to the Pope on AI-related matters.
