I don't think I've seen an ad like this before - uses extensive footage of Pope Leo XIV warning against AI and ties it to a candidate's (CO8's Manny Rutinel) proposed AI regulations.

From a super PAC funded entirely by tech billionaire Chris Larsen, the founder of Ripple.

@JacobRubashkin There has to be some legal prohibition against using @Pontifex's likeness in an ad right? How did they get permission to use this?
