Pope Leo XIV greeted enthusiastic crowds while riding through Paris in a popemobile on Friday, according to France 24, following remarks in which he called for peace and warned against losing humanity amid what he described as an AI-driven paradise of machines.
The report quoted one person in the crowd describing the pope as extraordinary after he passed by. France 24 did not provide the full text of the pope's speech or specify the venue where the remarks on artificial intelligence were delivered, though the appearance appears connected to the same Paris visit that included his stop at Notre-Dame Cathedral.
Crowd reaction highlighted
The report focused on the public reaction along the popemobile route rather than providing extensive detail on the substance of the pope's broader remarks. It did not specify the exact route taken through Paris or estimate the size of the crowds that gathered.
Pope Leo XIV's warnings about artificial intelligence's effect on humanity reflect a theme that has featured in his public remarks, though the report does not provide additional context on prior statements he may have made on the subject.
No further detail on the schedule for the remainder of his visit was included in the available report.
