    Typical lemmy hate:

    “The unique human capacity for moral judgment and ethical decision-making is more than a complex collection of algorithms, and that capacity cannot be reduced to programming a machine, which as ‘intelligent’ as it may be, remains a machine,” Francis wrote.

    “Any number of urgent questions need to be asked. What will be the consequences, in the medium and long term, of these new digital technologies? And what impact will they have on individual lives and on societies, on international stability and peace?”

    Lemmy: “Fuck him! This is unreasonable coming from a religious leader!” But when the same questions are asked by laymen, “Yeah, this is serious. We should think on this.”

    I’m a stone-cold atheist. Seen a couple of Popes come and go. This guy is as good a man as I’ve seen on the throne. I’ll allow it.

      I couldn’t care less if this man is good. He’s the head of the institution who has been oppressing the people for centuries. And when he says we should fear a “technology dictatorship” I can’t avoid to laugh thinking how many dictatorships they’ve held and or supported in the past.

    He’s afraid for his job, NGL

    edit: please tell me there’s someone (or, better yet, multiple teams) already training an LLM on every Abrahamic religious text and leaders’ speeches, etc. so that the new Cyber Pope can be this species’ new monolith…

    The leader of a pedophile death cult has nothing of value to say about anything.
