Joint Letter on Artificial Intelligence Principles and Priorities
Several bishop chairmen write to Congress to offer some principles and policy recommendations concerning artificial intelligence (AI) as pastors entrusted with concern for the life and dignity of the human person and the common good. AI offers both opportunities and challenges to our nation and the world. As our new Holy Father Pope Leo XIV reminds us, AI requires “responsibility and discernment in order to ensure it can be used for the good of all, so that it can benefit all of humanity.” Congressional response to this rapidly developing technology should include a regulatory framework informed by ethical principles and reasonable policy considerations.
