MY LATEST PROJECT
Paulist Press to Publish Antiqua et Nova,
the Vatican’s New Document on Artificial Intelligence
Paulist Press is honored to announce the upcoming publication of Antiqua et Nova, the Vatican’s recent document on artificial intelligence. This timely and thought-provoking text, released by the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith and the Dicastery for Culture and Education on January 14, 2025, offers a theological and ethical framework for engaging with AI in a rapidly evolving world.
I am deeply grateful to have been invited to write the introduction for this publication. My engagement with AI and the Church’s response to emerging technologies has led me to various conversations at the intersection of faith and technology. Last October, I had the privilege of participating in a panel at an AI forum at the Vatican.
This forthcoming edition by Paulist Press will provide English-speaking audiences with access to the document along with reflections that connect its themes to contemporary pastoral and ethical concerns.
