VATICAN CITY, May 18 — The Vatican announced Monday that Pope Leo will publish his inaugural comprehensive document on May 25, which is anticipated to focus on artificial intelligence developments and threats to workers’ rights.
The document, called an encyclical, is also expected to condemn ongoing global conflicts. The work will carry the title “Magnifica Humanitas” (Magnificent Humanity) and received the pope’s formal signature on Friday before its scheduled release, according to a Vatican statement.
In an uncommon step for a Catholic pontiff, Leo, who is the first U.S. pope, plans to participate in a Vatican presentation of the document on its publication date.
