While I am cerain there are smart Catholics, even some working on AI development, agents of the Church are a different story, and I'd expect them to push policy that serves the Church institution, and disregards the interests of the laity it is supposed to serve.

So I'd see this as just a power play, and ultimately the Holy See would endorse any AI of any company that offers access to it to the Church, even if it hasn't been tested to be safe for direct access to the world.

But I can be cynical of for-profit institutions.
