  • Pope Leo XIV has said he will not authorise the creation of an AI avatar of himself, as it would blur the lines between truth and fiction.
  • The Pope also noted that he is concerned with AI’s impact on human dignity and jobs.
  • If automation replaces too many people and only a few can work, that could be a “huge problem” the Pope said.

    That is not the full paragraph. It reads:

    “If it is not practicable or appropriate to seek consent, and in exceptional cases where a patient has refused consent, disclosing personal information may be justified in the public interest if failure to do so may expose others to a risk of death or serious harm. The benefits to an individual or to society of the disclosure must outweigh both the patient’s and the public interest in keeping the information confidential.”

    Let’s not forget that you had previously stated:

    FYI a dokter/psychiatrist [sic] is just as banned from exposing a confessed murder or rapist,

    From this UK source, doctors are explicitly exempt from violating doctor-patient confidentiality in the aforementioned case. This directly contradicts your statement.

    I’m eager to read your referenced citations from the individuals you’ve interviewed in other regions where doctors would be banned in such cases.

      The fuller quote does not add more nuance here. I am not sure how you are deriving at your interpretation. Can you give an example of an “afformented case” that validates this exception?

      It is not in the public interest to break doctor patient confidentiality about events that happend in the past when It is vastly better if the patient understands their wrongdoing and goed to law enforcement themselves. There is usually plenty of time to convince them if its clear there is no actual risk to a living person in the now.

      There is no interview, there is a question i was curious about years ago while i had access to psychiatric professionals so inquired them about what the law said about it.

        I’ve no interest in debating your opinion, forgive me for not entertaining it. Perhaps you’ve not recalled your past interactions accurately, and my only goal here is to correct the misinformation written in this thread.

        If you’re instead looking for some sources, I’ve performed a rudimentary search on interpreting paragraph 64:
