On Monday, 9 November 2026, Pope Leo XIV addressed social movements and the world of work at the Catholic University of Buenos Aires, Argentina, Vatican News reports.<\/p>\n

Reflecting on the principles of the Church\u2019s Social Doctrine, the Pope said the \u201cfirst and most fundamental\u201d is \u201cthe dignity of the human person.\u201d He warned that \u201cthe challenges posed by artificial intelligence and unregulated automation can put countless jobs at risk and become a real threat to proper integral human development.\u201d<\/p>\n

He stressed that \u201ctechnology must always be subject to ethics,\u201d and, in Vatican News\u2019 summary, said an algorithm cannot replace human discernment or the intrinsic value of a worker\u2019s physical presence and effort.<\/p>\n

The Pope also said that \u201cwhen economic profit is established as the sole criterion of success, a business becomes dehumanized,\u201d pointing to Venerable Enrique Shaw, the Argentine Catholic entrepreneur, as an example. He urged those present to defend human dignity, promote the common good and practise solidarity and subsidiarity, \u201cplacing God at the forefront of our actions and the human person at the center of our choices.\u201d<\/p>\n
