Vatican AI Push: Pope Leo XIV has created an in-house study group on artificial intelligence as he prepares his first encyclical, expected to argue for an ethics-first approach that puts human dignity and peace at the center. The move follows his signing of the encyclical on the anniversary of Rerum Novarum, and it’s now backed by a formal Interdicasterial Commission on AI involving seven Vatican bodies. Arts & Culture: At the 61st Venice Biennale, standout national pavilions included Austria, Japan, Germany, Greece, India, Argentina—and a Vatican pavilion built around sound. Immersive Vatican Art: In Sydney, the Vatican approved high-resolution projections of Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel frescoes for a major outdoor exhibition at St Mary’s Cathedral. Masterpiece Spotlight: Michelangelo’s Pietà remains the week’s artistic anchor, with fresh attention on how the sculpture’s balance and polish capture the mother-and-child union. Local Church News: Vatican approval also went to a unique exhibition for an Australian cathedral.
