Longbeard

Together for the Common Good invited Longbeard CEO Matthew Harvey Sanders to give a keynote on AI and the future of work at the London Jesuit Centre on 20 May 2026. The following day, he was invited to the House of Lords for a discussion hosted by Lord Griffiths of Fforestfach with peers and MPs to continue the conversation. The full talk is linked in the comments — it's one of the more serious treatments of what's actually coming and what the Church has to say about it.

Matthew Harvey Sanders joined the Faith and AI Project this week for a panel conversation on Magnifica Humanitas alongside Dr. Brett Robinson from the University of Notre Dame and Fr. Jean Gove, Diocesan Coordinator for AI for the Archdiocese of Malta. It is a wide-ranging discussion and worth the full watch. The encyclical is not a regulatory document and this panel does not treat it like one. Link to the full episode in the comments.

Pope Leo XIV's encyclical Magnifica Humanitas arrived at just the right moment. The Archdiocese of Detroit's "Ministry in an AI Era" conference on June 11 gives Catholic ministers just over two weeks to read the Holy Father's words — and then gather to unpack what they mean for parish life in practice. Magisterium AI is glad to be part of that conversation. Link to the full story in the comments.

Earlier this month, Matthew Harvey Sanders was invited to address the Bishops' Conferences of Europe in Rome. The subject: whether the Church will be present inside AI — or leave the field to those who are.

The full talk is now live. Link in the comments.
