Artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming how content is created, raising new questions about creativity, originality and the role of human expression. Pope Leo XIV has stressed the importance of distinguishing human-made art from AI-generated work, saying the two are fundamentally different and calling for stronger collaboration with artists and cultural institutions to preserve uniquely human qualities.
Pope Leo XIV wrote, “In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgent to distinguish human art from what machines produce. Pope Leo XIV has highlighted the need to recognise the difference between human-created art and work produced by artificial intelligence.
In a post, he said the rise of AI makes this distinction increasingly important and called for greater cooperation with artists and cultural institutions to protect human qualities. Pope Leo XIV said the Church wants to renew its alliance with artists and cultural institutions. He said this effort is aimed at safeguarding humanity in the era of artificial intelligence.
