Anthropic co-founder appears at the Vatican: warns of AI-induced unemployment crisis, calls for breaking the tech industry's regulatory monopoly.

CoinFeed reported on May 25th that Chris Olah, co-founder of the artificial intelligence company Anthropic, was invited to attend a special press conference in the Vatican's Synod Chamber. As Pope Leo XIV released his first encyclical focusing on AI ethics, *Magnifica humanitas*, Olah, as a rare representative of the secular tech community, delivered a speech, issuing a strong appeal regarding the future and governance of artificial intelligence. Addressing the current rapid advancement of AI, Olah emphasized three core points at the conference: A firm opposition to the autonomy of "tech oligarchs": Olah clearly stated that the direction and regulation of artificial intelligence development should not be solely determined by cutting-edge AI labs and tech giants. He called on religious leaders, governments, and broad civil society to participate deeply in the supervision and guidance of AI as a core force.
