Thiel Accuses Pope of 'Working for Chinese Communists" on AI
Thiel said the Vatican’s AI warning would slow the U.S. in its race with China and called Pope Leo XIV a Chinese communist ally.
- On Tuesday, billionaire Peter Thiel warned an audience at the Aspen Ideas Festival that Pope Leo XIV is inadvertently "working for the Chinese Communists" by advocating for international artificial intelligence regulation.
- Thiel argued the Pope's encyclical, "Magnifica Humanitas," threatens the U.S. position in the global AI race, claiming Beijing is unlikely to heed Vatican requests to disarm the technology.
- During the same panel, Thiel claimed the Democratic Party faces a "democratic-socialist takeover," asserting the Republican Party is the "less important" political force in the current landscape.
- President Trump joined the criticism on social media, labeling the Pope "WEAK on Crime" and "terrible for Foreign Policy," while claiming Leo would not hold his position without his administration.
- Long-Standing friction exists between the tech investor and the Holy See, stemming from Thiel's March lecture series in Rome regarding the Antichrist, which reportedly unnerved Vatican officials.
