Will the Catholic Church take an unambiguous stand against AI within 2030?

This resolves YES if within Dec. 31 2030 an official statement from the Holy See (such as an encyclical) is released that condemns the use of artificial intelligence. It may be broader in scope but it has to be clearly addressing AI development and/or use per se, not excesses or particular applications. Resolution will be based on the text as appearing on the official Vatican website. Statements from individual clergymen do not count.

If by 2030 the Catholic Church or AI no longer exist, I will resolve N/A. In case of a schism, the faction that controls the physical premises of the Vatican in Rome will count as the Catholic Church even if they do not control the website: if that is the case I will attempt to locate official sources that track the opinion of the prevalent branch as defined above, disregarding the website.

My thesis:

There is nothing in AI as-is that's against catholic teaching. (I know a Jesuit priest who uses ChatGPT.)

But personhood or having a soul ... that would be a problem.

@uair01 I pretty much agree with you, though there is enough time between now and 2030 for unexpected developments to occur.
