Abstract

AI is an approximation of human intelligence for the reason that it leaves open the prospect that AI will exceed human intelligence demonstrating a separate category of intelligence. Moreover, AI is interrelated to using computers to understand human intelligence, but it is not necessarily confined to methods that are biologically observable, which means that AI denotes the competence of a machine to imitate intelligent human behavior. The emerging digital lifeworld delivers resources for a new type of government, which means that the algorithmic government is about extracting facts, entities, concepts, and objects from vast repositories of data making those subjects and objects traceable and amenable to decision and action via the unavoidable power of inference. AAI systems host algorithmic governmentality encompassing governable subjects who function not as real people but rather as temporary aggregates of infra-personal data, which means that by numbering the system will control the globe via the deployment of statistical power encompassed by AAI systems.
