A software developer in North Carolina reportedly obtained a religious exemption from her employer to avoid using AI for coding. Erin Maus, a Unitarian Universalist, cited the Pope's encyclical Magnifica Humanitas — which calls for vigilance in AI deployment — to support her case. She consulted both an employment lawyer and her local minister, and her exemption was granted. The story raises questions about whether religious objections to AI use at work could become a broader trend.
