Description
This paper focuses on the relation between technology and international politics. It specifically analyses artificial intelligence (AI) critically and examines how it continues to dominate society as well as every aspect of a human life. The much-hyped fourth generation industrial revolution is branded as a disruptive technology one that is fully poised to change the interaction between man and machine in more ways than one. AI has made remarkable development. Machines haves taken the form of human beings as they think, argue and solve problems like humans do. Furthermore, it has changed the interaction between market and politics to the extent of affecting international trade and investment. In the domain of international relations, the methods of diplomacy and conflict have been changed as well. However, it has augmented the concerns of national security in past few year as China has achieved a lot of success in it, thereby posing a threat and potentially causing insecurity to powerful countries like America in particular and to the whole world in general.
The paper seeks to engage with these challenges along with focussing on some of the thinkers of critical theoretical tradition like Benjamin, Foucault and Derrida. These people were also fighting against similar technology and the domination established by some countries. The only difference is that this technology and its methods of establishing domination have changed.
