Two previously unknown homilies by St Augustine found

Skoperta minn studjużi tal-Università ta’ Würzburg fil-Ġermanja wasslet biex ġew identifikati żewġ omeliji ta’ Santu Wistin, iktar minn 16-il seklu wara mewtu.

Jesus knew what they were thinking, and said, “Why do you harbour evil thoughts? … Read more »

A Vatican commission is drafting guidelines on the responsible use of AI

Wara li fit-12 ta’ Mejju ġiet approvata kummissjoni ġdida fi ħdan il-Vatikan dwar l-Intelliġenza Artifiċjali – AI, il-Kummissjoni interdekasterjali se tkun qed tippubblika linji gwida dwar l-użu responsabbli tal-AI fl-istituzzjonijiet kollha tal-Vatikan.
