The pope is calling your AI art shit in Latin
Hac intellegentiae artificialis aetate, urgens fit humanam artem ab iis distinguere, quae machinis efficiuntur. Ars enim et ea, quae machina ex innumeris alienis imaginibus statisticae ope computationis generare potest, ontologice, prius etiam quam aesthetice, inter se differunt. Algorithmis humani deest favilla. Quapropter Ecclesia cum artificibus et humani cultus institutis foedus renovare cupit: foedus scilicet ad humanum custodiendum.

Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This story about a bear that remembered a wildlife center from its own rescue and brought injured animals there is not real. It originated from a Facebook page that frequently posts made-up animal stories. No wildlife centers have reported these events.
