It seems the AI Revolution is indeed top of mind for the new Pope- the name Leo XIV calls back to Leo XIII who wrote Rerum Novarum during the Industrial Revolution, which addressed the social and economic issues caused by it.

And now the AI emphasis is confirmed by the pope himself:

"Sensing myself called to continue in this same path, I chose to take the name Leo XIV. There are different reasons for this, but mainly because Pope Leo XIII in his historic Encyclical Rerum Novarum addressed the social question in the context of the first great industrial revolution. In our own day, the Church offers to everyone the treasury of her social teaching in response to another 
industrial revolution and to developments in the field of artificial intelligence that pose new challenges for the defence of human dignity, justice and labour."
