So I hope he sat down with pen and parchment and put this together.

I found myself surprised, but then I was wondering, well, why am I surprised?

I guess he's from the old school, right?

And, like, I'm not religious, but this...

This might make me convert because I am extremely anti-AI when it comes to specific things.

I should throw in my usual caveat of there are parts of the world and there are industries, medical and so on, where AI does have a place and so on and so forth.

But he's talking about warfare.

He's talking about disinformation.

My own bugbear is in the creative arts when it comes to generative AI.

I mean, there's also the environmental impact.

There's people losing their jobs.

There's a passive acceptance of this.

I feel that we're in a world where some billionaires have convinced people to go, no, you need this.

And it's like, no, no, you don't.

This is their toys and they need it for their quarterly earnings.

And I wish as a society we would be more resistant to this.

And I find myself in an unexpected ally in Pope Leo.

I'm delighted that he's come out with this.

What did you make of it, Lee Sand?

But there's always a footnote.
