AI detection tool claims Pope’s anti-AI warnings may be AI-written
AI detection tool analyzing text

An AI detection tool has flagged recent warnings from Pope Francis regarding the risks of artificial intelligence as potentially being written by an AI itself, according to a report by Decrypt.co.

The findings, released by the detection platform, suggest that the text used to communicate the Vatican's stance on machine learning and ethics shows high linguistic markers characteristic of generative models.

While the Vatican has frequently called for global regulation of the technology, the tool's analysis implies the messaging may lack human authorship.

The detection claims

The report from Decrypt.co highlights that the specific phrasing and structure of the Pope's recent warnings align with patterns typically found in large language models (LLMs).

This development occurs as the Catholic Church continues to lead global discussions on the ethical deployment of automated systems and the necessity of human-centric oversight.

No official response from the Holy See has been provided regarding the specific technical claims made by the detection tool.
