AI is a human-made artifact. It is not a person, it has no rational soul, and it must stay under human judgment. In answer to Pope Leo XIV's encyclical Magnifica Humanitas, Neil Day has written Magnifica Humanitas in Practice: A Thomistic Framework for Catholic AI Governance and the Hylomorphic Audit Checklist, both offered as prototypes for critique.
Neil Day takes part in the Builders AI Forum at the Pontifical Gregorian University, Rome, on 5–6 November 2026.
