China, America, and Russia's Policies Towards Artificial Intelligence in Relation to Diplomacy and International Relations
CHINA, AMERICA AND RUSSIA'S POLICIES TOWARDS ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN RELATION TO DIPLOMACY AND INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS
Recent developments in machine learning and data analytics have spurred global AI policy action. Since 2016, governments, international organisations, civil society organisations, think tanks, and consultancies have released AI strategies and publications (Ulnicane et al., 2022).
Technology rules our world, but why? Laws and technology rule us equally. It affects our legal, social, and ethical contexts. Technology controls us when we drive, cross the street, or go to the doctor. Citizens and lawmakers rarely question technology's impact on our lives. Pesticides and GMOs can relieve hunger but hurt people and the environment. As with CFCs destroying the ozone layer, it takes decades to realise the impact. Despite many warnings, we keep plunging into ethically murky waters. Jasanoff criticises the idea that technology is apolitical and immoral. She shows how technology may distort democracy and citizenship unless we use it wisely. The Ethics of Invention proposes that cultures discuss technology's risks and benefits in an open, democratic dialogue (Jasanoff, 2016).
A narrative has emerged in the United States suggesting that artificial intelligence will be an essential element of geopolitical power. This narrative suggests that artificial intelligence will have a significant impact not only on how the United States and China will fare in their great power conflict but also on the overall state of power relations in the world (Franke, 2021).
A prediction made in 2010 stated that the power gap between China and the United States is narrowing and that it is increasingly likely that there will be no such thing as "US strategic primacy" in this region in the future. This is not to imply that the United States will cease to exist; on the contrary, it is possible that its presence will increase in response to the emergence of China. The United States of America, on the other hand, will no longer have the position of preponderant power in the Asia-Pacific area, a position it has held continuously since 1945 (Mearsheimer, 2010).
China and The US remain the supreme powers of AI in current times. China wants to lead AI by 2030. (AI). Beijing wants to improve its military, economy, and influence abroad. China's goals may spark a new technology arms race despite the US's AI dominance. The US has mostly reacted to China's AI ambitions. Instead of nurturing US potential and strengthening its technical lead, it has blocked Chinese AI investment (Fischer, 2018).
How China Has Inplemented Artificial Intelligence
The 'New Generation Artificial Intelligence Development Plan' was announced by China's State Council in 2017. It's the nation's AI strategy. This plan stated China's ambitions to lead the world in artificial intelligence by 2030, commercialise AI and develop it into a trillion yuan (150 billion USD) sector, and set ethical standards for AI. Several articles have examined China's AI policies and technical capabilities (Roberts, et al., 2020).
The Chinese government has shown an intense awareness of the challenges that artificial intelligence (AI) and international security present. The Chinese government places high strategic importance on artificial intelligence (AI), and as a result, it is dedicating the resources necessary to develop AI competence and strategic thinking within its national security department. This includes familiarity with the U.S. Discussions around AI policy. It is very necessary for the community of policymakers in the United States to give the same level of priority to the cultivation of expertise and understanding of AI advancements i
