OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said he is "very uncomfortable" when people ascribe religious force or a surrender of human judgment to AI models, calling it a "real safety issue."
His remarks followed a New York Times report on Anthropic's outreach to religious leaders and a statement from Pope Leo XIV that "algorithms lack the spark of humanity."
Altman himself said in 2023 and 2024 that OpenAI's goal was to build "magic intelligence in the sky," and said he hoped to be on God's side and felt "on the side of the angels."
OpenAI has also held conversations with religious leaders, according to reporting around the comments.
