ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE: IMAGINARY EFFECTS AND EFFECTS ON THE (SOCIO-POLITICAL) IMAGINARY

Abstract

In this article, Vaccaro tries to define artificial intelligence in its way of functioning, underlining the enormous memory capacity that makes it fast, although he does not understand the meaning of what it does at all. Precisely on the role of archived memory, Derrida. and Foucault show us the strategic function of command and orientation that we observe today in the commercial and political marketing functions of digital devices. Finally, Vaccaro focuses on the widespread perception of AI, reconnecting the Weberian category of charisma, which colonizes the socio-political imaginary to the point of confusing itself with an aura of magic and superhumanity.
