AI can be scary, but Pope Leo is sleeping well. (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The pope has had already had plenty to say about AI safety, including, as PBS reports, new comments aboard his plane on Monday. Pope Leo reportedly said that worries about rogue AI aren’t “fake news” and that concerns “should be taken seriously.” But he remains “relatively optimistic” about the enterprise — as long as it proceeds responsibly. “If someone were to ask me ‘am I in panic mode?’ No, I’m not,” Leo said, according to PBS. “I sleep at night.”

All the latest updates on AI data centers A new report from the Pew Research Center adds more data points to the thing everyone seems to know by now: data centers are pretty unpopular.
