摘要

This article investigates the ethical and ecological implications of artificial intelligence (AI) within the context of the planetary polycrisis—an interlinked series of environmental, social, and moral disruptions. Anchored in Catholic social thought and guided by the See–Judge–Act framework, the study engages the theological and ethical insights of Pope Francis’ Laudato Si’ and Laudate Deum to critically examine AI’s role in shaping just and sustainable futures. The research first assesses (See) current trends in AI development and deployment, particularly their ecological costs and societal consequences. It then evaluates (Judge) these realities through the lens of integral ecology, arguing that AI must be governed not solely through technocratic or market-driven mechanisms, but through frameworks that uphold human dignity, environmental integrity, and the common good. Finally, it proposes (Act) a set of normative and policy-oriented recommendations that advance interdisciplinary cooperation, global regulatory alignment, and the ethical reorientation of AI systems. By synthesizing theological, philosophical, and governance perspectives, this article contributes to emerging discourses on AI ethics and sustainable governance in an era of global systemic risk.
