Seminary Symposium to Address AI's Role in Media and Communications

St. Charles Borromeo Seminary will host the John Cardinal Foley Symposium on May 20 at 7 p.m., bringing together researchers to discuss artificial intelligence and media literacy in light of Pope Leo XIV's message on preserving human voices in communications.

Mariele Courtois of Benedictine College will deliver the keynote lecture, with Catherine Moon of Villanova University providing response remarks. Both researchers work with the A.I. Research Group for the Center for Digital Culture at the Dicastery for Culture and Education of the Holy See and contributed to the book "Encountering Artificial Intelligence: Ethical and Anthropological Investigations."

The symposium is free and open to the public.

Award Honors Communications Excellence

Tracy Davidson, a veteran news anchor and reporter, will receive the 2026 Cardinal Foley Award before the symposium begins. The award recognizes her work in communications across the Philadelphia region.

The symposium honors Cardinal John Foley, who led the Pontifical Council for Social Communications from 1984 to 2007 and previously edited The Catholic Standard and Times.

Why This Matters for Communications Professionals

For PR and communications professionals, the intersection of AI and media literacy is no longer theoretical. Understanding how AI affects news production, audience trust, and message authenticity has become essential to the work.

Communications professionals looking to deepen their knowledge in this area may find value in exploring AI for PR & Communications or understanding Generative AI and LLM fundamentals.
