Diplomacy is often described as an art, involving decisions shaped by sensitive political nuances that require human judgment, cultural understanding, and emotional intelligence — qualities that AI cannot fully replicate.
While AI can support decision-making, it may also manipulate human behavior subtly, especially through systems developed in countries with different geopolitical priorities.
This deepens the AI divide between technologically advanced and resource-limited nations, embedding linguistic and cultural biases and reinforcing global power asymmetries.
As algorithms take their place alongside diplomats, the art of negotiation now meets the science of AI.
The future of diplomacy must lie in fostering a symbiotic relationship where AI enhances human expertise, streamlines processes, and offers new strategic tools while leaving the nuanced art of diplomacy in human hands.
Diplomatic institutions adopting such technologies should also adopt guardrails to clarify how these systems inform decision-making.
To ensure that AI systems function appropriately across diverse cultural contexts, adaptive and responsible AI frameworks should be integrated into policy discussions at the national and international levels.
Crucially, any AI deployment must prioritise human agency.
The goal must not be to automate diplomacy, but to augment it.
AI’s incorporation into diplomacy offers both promise and peril.
While the technology supports efficiency and expands access to information, it must be governed by strong ethical frameworks, particularly when it can shape global power relations through sensitive negotiations.
Rather than embracing AI as a magic wand, it must be approached as a double-edged sword that is capable of assisting, but never replacing the unique human skills that diplomacy demands.

130. The author argues that the ethical governance of AI’s application in diplomacy is especially critical because its influence may extend beyond technical efficiency to altering the global distribution of political power.
🔎 Gabarito: CERTO
🧭 1️⃣ Leitura orientada do item
O item exige leitura global do texto, com foco na relação entre tecnologia, ética e poder internacional.
A banca avalia se o candidato percebe que o impacto da IA ultrapassa a eficiência técnica.
📝 2️⃣ Análise técnica do item
O texto afirma que a incorporação da IA pode reforçar assimetrias globais de poder, sobretudo quando desenvolvida sob prioridades geopolíticas específicas.
Ao mencionar “global power asymmetries”, a autora deixa claro que o impacto da IA não é apenas operacional, mas também político.
Por isso, a defesa de strong ethical frameworks está diretamente ligada ao risco de redistribuição desigual de poder.
⚠️ 3️⃣ Armadilhas clássicas da banca
• Reduzir o papel da IA a ganho de eficiência.
• Ignorar o léxico ligado a poder e assimetria global.
• Ler “ethical frameworks” como mera formalidade técnica.
🧠 4️⃣ Resumo B3GE™ Master
✔ IA pode reforçar assimetrias globais de poder.
✔ Impacto vai além da eficiência técnica.
✔ Governança ética é central no texto.
Gabarito: CERTO.
