Abstract

In the digital age, artificial intelligence (AI) plays a significant role as a transformative technology in various fields, including international security and human rights. With its predictive, data analysis, and crisis management capabilities, this technology can help improve the efficiency of international institutions, prevent conflicts, reduce security tensions, and promote the implementation of international law. The use of AI in the military, cybersecurity, and preventive diplomacy fields has been able to accelerate and make decision-making more efficient. However, the widespread use of AI has brought with it numerous legal and ethical challenges. These challenges include determining legal responsibility for actions resulting from algorithmic decisions, its impact on national sovereignty, the increased likelihood of algorithmic discrimination, and the risks of improper or uncontrolled use of this technology in armed conflicts. In addition, the lack of transparency in the decision-making process of AI and excessive dependence on it can weaken the fundamental principles of international law and reduce the role of governments and international institutions in ensuring order and security. This article uses an analytical-descriptive method and uses library resources and, with the aim of providing a comprehensive framework for regulating and monitoring the use of AI in international security, examines the applications of this technology, its legal and ethical challenges, and proposed solutions to ensure its responsible and sustainable use. In this regard, the role of international instruments, human rights principles, and monitoring mechanisms to reduce risks and enhance the effectiveness of the international legal system in dealing with AI is analyzed.
