Pope Leo XIV told journalists that communication must be freed from clickbait and misguided thinking.

“‘Artificial intelligence is changing the way we receive information and communicate, but who directs it and for what purposes? We must be vigilant in order to ensure that technology does not replace human beings, and that the information and algorithms that govern it today are not in the hands of a few,’ he said.

He nominated ‘transparency of sources of ownership, accountability, quality and objectivity’ as key to news media.

‘I urge you: never sell out your authority,’ he said.”

Really funny headline on that article.
Honestly hardly anyone in power talks about the clickbait economy, it’s jarring to see him use that word. It is such an insidious and fundamental part of where we are at as a society.
