November 6, 2026, Adrian, Michigan – Artificial Intelligence (AI) has become a controversial topic for many reasons. In an upcoming workshop, Kim Daniels explores the intersection of AI and Catholic social teaching, focusing on how the moral vocabulary of the Catholic tradition offers a practical framework to ensure that the development of AI benefits everyone. 

Artificial Intelligence, Human Dignity, and “The Least of These” is scheduled for 7:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. ET on Thursday, December 10, 2026. The workshop is livestreamed only.

Kim, Director of the Initiative on Catholic Social Thought and Public Life at Georgetown University, draws on Catholic social teaching about AI, including the recent encyclical by Pope Leo XIV, Magnifica Humanitas. Kim served from 2016 to 2026 as a member of the Vatican Dicastery for Communication and was an expert participant in the 2021-2024 Synod on Synodality.
