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.

132. According to the text, the use of AI in diplomacy reduces the risk of reinforcing global inequalities.
🔎 Gabarito: ERRADO
🧭 1️⃣ Leitura orientada do item
O item exige compreensão global do argumento central do texto, especialmente dos trechos que tratam das assimetrias globais associadas ao uso de IA.
A banca testa se o candidato percebe que o texto apresenta a IA como um fator que pode agravar, e não reduzir, desigualdades estruturais.
📝 2️⃣ Análise técnica do item
O texto afirma explicitamente que o uso da IA “deepens the AI divide” entre nações tecnologicamente avançadas e países com menos recursos.
Além disso, menciona que a IA pode reforçar assimetrias de poder globais, especialmente quando molda negociações sensíveis.
Portanto, é incorreto afirmar que o uso da IA reduz o risco de desigualdades; o texto sustenta justamente o contrário.
⚠️ 3️⃣ Armadilhas clássicas da banca
• Inverter o sentido argumentativo do texto.
• Confundir “potencial benefício” com “efeito real descrito”.
• Ignorar expressões-chave como deepens e reinforcing.
🧠 4️⃣ Resumo B3GE™ Master
✔ A IA pode aprofundar divisões globais.
✔ O texto alerta para reforço de assimetrias de poder.
✔ Não há afirmação de redução de desigualdades.
Gabarito: ERRADO.
