Moles, spots, and growths on your skin are usually harmless—but not always.

Moles, spots, and growths on your skin are usually harmless—but not always.

Examine the skin all over your body once a month and look for these “ABCDE” warning signs:
- Asymmetry. Does one half of the mole not match the other in shape, size, colour, or appearance?
- Borders. Are the edges uneven, scalloped or notched?
- Colours. Are there many shades (brown, red, white, blue or black)?
- Diameter greater than 6 mm. Is the mole the size of a pencil eraser or larger?
- Evolution. Has there been a change in size, shape, colour, or height? Has a new symptom developed (like bleeding, itching or crusting)?

The cardinal shared 10 points on social media to foster a deeper understanding of the Holy Fatherʼs central message in the document:
1. The human person lies at the center of all technological progress.
2. The great challenge of our time is not technical but human and spiritual.
3. Artificial intelligence must be placed at the service of the common good.
4. Human dignity does not depend on productivity or capabilities.
5. Fragility is not a defect that must be eliminated.
6. No artificial intelligence can replace human experience.
7. Truth is a common good that must be protected.
8. Human work cannot be subjected to the logic of machines.
9. Freedom is threatened by new, invisible forms of control.
10. Peace and the civilization of love constitute the true alternative to technological power.

Cardinal Fernando Chomali, archbishop of Santiago, Chile, offered a 10-point guide to understanding the central message of Magnifica Humanitas, Pope Leo XIVʼs first encyclical, presented May 25.

The encyclicalʼs theme is “On Safeguarding the Human Person in the Time of Artificial Intelligence." In it, the pope calls upon both society and those who design artificial intelligence (AI) technologies to be subject to “more rigorous ethical constraints” out of “respect for human dignity and the sanctity of life.”
