Inteligencia artificial y nuevas formas de gobierno en la era digital

Abstract

In the current moment marked by the imprint of the digital era and by the technological advances of the fourth industrial revolution, artificial intelligence (AI) has been developed in different human activities, such as: health, entertainment, security, telecommunications, art and government. In this sense, the objective of this article was to analyze the capabilities of AI in the new forms of digital government, among which the following stand out: smart cities, open government and democracy 2.0. Methodologically, this is a documentary research, based on some aspects of the Cartesian method. In addition, the technique of open interviews with two social scientists was used to know their opinion about the possible problems and benefits brought by the use of IA in government work. The information analyzed allows us to conclude that, in the near future, the use of AI in different government activities will be very common, in order to increase efficiency and effectiveness in public management and reduce traditional corruption practices. However, the problems that AI may have in technological and political terms for the true being of democracy are not ruled out.
