NEW: According to a bombshell report in the New York Times, Anthropic co-founder Chris Olah threatened to walk out of Pope Leo XIV’s AI encyclical launch in May because the pope rejected the idea that machines can be conscious. Olah’s team then privately lobbied the pope’s advisers “to take the possibility of model consciousness seriously.” Pope Leo XIV held firm. For months, Anthropic has wined and dined theologians and religious scholars under nondisclosure agreements, hoping they would bless the idea that Claude has moral standing.
I would give almost anything to have been in the room to watch the guy whose job it was to convince a Pontifical University of Saint Thomas Aquinas graduate that his boss has successfully matched God and created a soul.
"Grazie for the dinner Msr. Olah. We shall carry your words to his Holiness." (writes HERETIC in all caps on Vatican stationary, seals it in an ivory white envelope, hands it off to the nearest assistant)
Take note of "Jesus'" feet in these paintings. In the original, they are not present, as a door was installed in that location centuries after the work was completed. As such, any reproduction will have to either include a blank space for the door, as shown in the second image, or reconstruct his feet from the authors vision, as was done in the first image.
Jesus was a foot guy, I know what Jesus would do....
