The theme of this year’s World Communications Day: ‘Disarm communication’ to foster hope and unity
All conflicts start when individual faces melt away and disappear‘. We must not surrender to this mindset.
Pope Francis

The Pope's message for World Communications Day follows the theme Artificial Intelligence and the Wisdom of the Heart: Towards a Fully Human Communication
Bishop John Arnold talks about how the technology can make information accessible and support the common good but we should make sure that it is carefully regulated.
We seek the wisdom that was present before all things (Sirach 1:4) to help us put systems of artificial intelligence at the service of a fully human communication.
