The Political Implications of Artificial Intelligence | 2023 Presidential Symposium

Kalikow School of Government, Public Policy and International Affairs and the Peter S. Kalikow Center for the Study of the American Presidency presents

THE POLITICAL IMPLICATIONS OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
Recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) may have profound implications for nearly every aspect of modern life. One of the most crucial areas affected is politics and how democratic societies get, understand, and verify information. The ability to craft convincing deep fakes and other forms of AI-generated communications could shake the very foundation of democratic life by making it more difficult for citizens to gather reliable information when engaged in voting and other critical areas of democratic life. In the international arena, AI poses not only information challenges but also may change the nature of power in world politics. While AI advancements may clearly help humanity tackle difficult problems with technological and policy innovations, could the use of the technology by nefarious actors pose a significant threat to critical aspects of domestic and international politics? These issues in both the domestic and international sphere raise questions that must be addressed now so that policy and potentially regulations can be crafted to manage this new frontier.

Meena Bose, Professor of Political Science and Executive Dean of Public Policy and Public Service Programs, Director of the Peter S. Kalikow Center for the Study of the American Presidency, and Peter S. Kalikow Chair in Presidential Studies
