An AI-generated image depicting Donald Trump as the Pope, posted on his Truth Social and White House social media accounts, sparked outrage among Catholic leaders. Many deemed the image disrespectful and a mockery, particularly given the recent death of Pope Francis. Trump, however, dismissed the criticism, calling it a "joke" and claiming he had no involvement. His response and similar comments from other administration officials have been criticized as insensitive and inappropriate, especially considering the upcoming papal conclave. Experts highlight this incident as a concerning precedent for the future use of AI in politics.
