 Serena Williams falls to 20-year-old Maya Joint in Wimbledon return after nearly four-year singles absence Serena Williams showed flashes of the power and precision that defined her Hall of Fame career in her return to professional singles tennis Tuesday, but ultimately fell short in a three-set opening-round loss at Wimbledon. The 44-year-old Williams, a 23-time Grand Slam champion, was defeated 6-3, 6-7 (6), 6-3 by 20-year-old Australian Maya Joint in a match that lasted 2 hours and 22 minutes on Centre Court. It marked Williams’ first singles appearance in nearly four years, since the 2022 U.S. Open. Williams still produced trademark moments, including powerful serves and heavy groundstrokes that once carried her to seven Wimbledon singles titles. But Joint, ranked 87th, absorbed the pace and proved steadier on the biggest points, repeatedly finding angles that pushed Williams out of position. “I don’t know what just happened, to be honest,” Joint said afterward. “I didn’t get ...

 Pope Leo bans Catholic priests from using AI to write sermons


Pope Leo has banned priests from using AI to write sermons because it will ‘never be able’ to speak to God.

 

Leo XIV issued the warning during a closed-door meeting with clergymen from the Diocese of Rome on Thursday, Febuary 26.

 

After delivering his address to the clergy, Pope Leo XIV took part in a question-and-answer session with four priests from different age groups chosen to ask questions.

 

In response to one parish priest’s question about how to be effective in this postmodern culture while avoiding returning to ‘anachronistic’ approaches, the pope laid out his beliefs on AI.

 

The 70-year-old Pope said the first step is ‘truly knowing the community where I am called to serve’.

 

Recalling a recent visit to the southern neighbourhood of Ostia in Rome, he explained how ‘to speak with these people, we must begin by knowing their reality as deeply as possible’.

 

Calling upon the priests to continue to experience real life, he ordered them to stay vigilant over artificial intelligence and the internet, issuing a warning against ‘the temptation to prepare homilies with artificial intelligence’.

 

He added: ‘Like all the muscles in the body, if we do not use them, if we do not move them, they die.

 

‘The brain needs to be used, so our intelligence must also be exercised a little so as not to lose this capacity.’

 

He explained that ‘to give a true homily is to share faith,’ and insisted AI ‘will never be able to share faith’.

 

‘If we can offer a service that is inculturated in the place, in the parish where we are working, people want to see your faith, your experience of having known and loved Jesus Christ,’ he added.
