Catholic AI is here. But Catholic AI companies need to answer some serious questions.
In this episode, I respond to Pope Leo XIV’s encyclical on artificial intelligence and ask what Catholic AI companies owe the faithful in terms of transparency, accountability, data privacy, theological review, environmental impact, and moral responsibility.
What model powers your Catholic AI? Is it using OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or another major LLM? Where do user prompts go? Who reviews the theology? What happens when someone asks about mortal sin, confession, scrupulosity, sexuality, grief, or despair? And if a company markets itself as a Catholic alternative to “secular AI,” shouldn’t Catholics know what is actually under the hood?
This episode is a call for greater transparency. And to stop treating the faith like a religious answer machine, and start living it as an incarnational encounter with the living Christ.
