The Week Ahead in AI: Pope and Anthropic Co-Founder to Address AI, More and Less Work for Humans, Plus ‘AI Washing’ Claims in the UK & Upcoming Earnings and Events

Pope Leo XIV called Monday for robust regulation of AI and for its developers to work for the common good rather than profit, issuing a sweeping manifesto on safeguarding humankind.

IBM has partnered with Scuderia Ferrari HP to overhaul the team’s fan app using enterprise AI, bringing the technology giant into Formula One — one of the fastest-growing sports in the United States and an increasingly competitive arena for tech companies including AWS, Oracle, and Anthropic. The partnership centres on transforming the millions of data points generated […]

There’s no denying the excitement around Model Context Protocol (MCP), an open protocol for connecting AI assistants with external data, tools, and APIs. Since its debut by Anthropic in late 2024, thousands of MCP servers have emerged for devops, cloud, and beyond. Now that developers have integrated MCP servers into applications, and they have been battle-tested, usage patterns are emerging. For instance, supplying better context for AI is the most commonly cited primary value of using MCP, according to Zuplo’s State of MCP report released in early 2026. The Zuplo report also found that 63% of MCP users adopt MCP servers for accessing data sources such as documentation or knowledge bases. In software development, context engineering is the act of supplying AI coding agents with relevant data and capabilities to improve the accuracy and relevance of their outputs. It also involves optimizing the breadth of information to guide efficient processing. Such context can include coding style

Pope Leo XIV will publish on Monday his long-awaited manifesto on artificial intelligence, outlining the Catholic Church’s response to the technology’s ethical and social challenges. The U.S.-born pontiff will personally present the “Magnifica Humanitas” encyclical at the Vatican alongside senior Church officials and leading AI experts, including Anthropic co-founder Dario Amodei.

Definition of green facilities made in 2022, before release of ChatGPT, says Action to Protect Rural Scotland A Scottish government policy designed to encourage datacentres to build in Scotland could lead to a massive volume of carbon emissions being ignored, according to an analysis by a Scottish charity. “Green datacentres” are at the heart of Scotland’s ambitions to develop economically. Enshrined in national policy, they are part of a larger, UK-wide effort to attract big AI investment to Scotland. Continue reading...
