Nope. I think the positive press for @pontifex is because the Pope cares about humanity, and the consequence of technology for humanity. And that the tech bros mostly don’t.

He’s also sharper on philosophy of mind than some people I could name…

@GaryMarcus @Pontifex Specifically that the Pope is a powerful, influential individual serving as head of one of humanity's most enduring institutions who is asserting clearly & unequivocally the primacy of the human person over economic interests & the interests of the most powerful. A rarity today.
