Pope Leo's First Encyclical Targets AI Ethics as Church Mobilises Globally

The Catholic Church in Ghana has held a high-level workshop preparing for Pope Leo's debut encyclical 'Magnifica Humanitas,' focused on artificial intelligence, human dignity, and ethical governance of emerging technologies. The Vatican's growing role in shaping global AI policy — through frameworks like the Rome Call for AI Ethics — signals the rise of a unified religious-political authority seeking to govern technology, conscience, and human behaviour on a worldwide scale. This mirrors prophetic warnings of a end-times religious system wielding sweeping influence over nations and peoples, as described in Revelation 17–18.
