> how best to infuse morality and ethics into the fast-developing technologyRegardless of what you think about AI, its impacts, and the ethical considerations, it's been clear for a long time that the people running AI companies--Altman et al.--are not acting either ethically or sincerely.
This is a publicity stunt at best. Asking unethical people how to make things more ethical isn't a workable idea.

For what it's worth I actually like the Vatican's take on AI. I hope they keep this perspective and don't allow OpenAI/Anthropic to influence. I think you're right this is more of a publicity stunt on the tech side.https://www.vatican.va/roman_curia/congregations/cfaith/docu...

(this is not meant as any kind of defense of the AI company executives, who should continually be called out for their unethical behavior)
