VATICAN CITY (CNS) — All the speeches and messages Pope Leo XIV has given since becoming pope May 8 are available on the Vatican website, which should be checked before sharing supposed quotes and videos, Vatican News said.
The Vatican News site published the warning in several languages May 21 after a 36-minute “deep fake” — AI-generated — video was posted on YouTube.
The post, which used manipulated video of Pope Leo and an AI-generated voice with an accent that is not Pope Leo’s, praises Ibrahim Traoré, the military ruler of Burkina Faso.
Vatican News said the post was “produced using footage from Pope Leo XIV’s audience with journalists on Monday, May 12.
The Vatican website offers papal texts, including the texts of video messages, in multiple languages, often including Italian, English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, German, Polish, Arabic, Chinese and Latin.
