Wathen, and Sammie Tootooni Recorded September 23, 2026, at Loyola University Chicago, Reflections on AI and Magnifica Humanitas explores what it means to develop and use artificial intelligence in ways that uphold human dignity and serve the common good. Inspired by Pope Leo XIV’s encyclical Magnifica Humanitas, the program brings together experts from business, philosophy, education, medicine, technology, and theology to examine the ethical and practical implications of AI. Conversations explore the tension between technological efficiency and human values, the role of moral and regulatory frameworks, and what it means to “humanize” AI as it becomes increasingly embedded in consequential decisions. Featured sessions include “It Takes a Pope,” “Reflections on Meeting the Pope,” and “Humanizing AI in Applied Fields.” Presented by Loyola University Chicago’s Lab for Applied AI.
