How to save democracy from artificial intelligence

Artificial Intelligence has become popular in record time, and we are faced with a fundamental question: How does this technology impact our abilities and potential to understand and solve the challenges we face as a society? In this book, Henrik Skaug Citra shows how technology interferes with everything from individual rights and human communication to political processes and power structures. Through concrete examples, such as digital versions of newscasters, automated decisions made by artificial intelligence systems, and the growing influence of global technology companies, he shows how artificial intelligence can change fundamental societal values. How to Save Democracy from Artificial Intelligence is an inspiring invitation to everyone interested in technology, politics, and societal development. Through examples, research findings, and careful analysis, Citra shows why we should strive for a future in which AI serves democratic governance, not undermines it. The book offers new insights and represents a valuable addition to the debate on how to avoid the greatest risks, while seizing the opportunities offered by technology, to ensure the continuation of a vibrant and just democracy.
