How are you using AI to conduct diplomacy?
📢Published today: An entire edition of The Foreign Service Journal focused on AI in diplomacy! At issue: Does AI hold promise or peril for foreign policy and the U.S. Department of State? As a member of the editorial board for the FSJ, I was proud to help organize this innovative edition. What makes this collection of authors so unique is the insider perspectives of the seven authors: three active Foreign Service Officers, one former FSO (me), two Civil Servants, and the CEO of an AI company: 1. My article introduces the edition and asks: Can the State Department integrate promising new technology without undermining the essential human aspects of diplomacy? https://lnkd.in/edF52wZR 2. As Director of the innovative Public Diplomacy office of Policy Planning and Resources, Paul Kruchoski is spearheading some of the most interesting and forward-leaning work at the Department. His article is a MUST READ. He explains that "making AI work at State requires challenging the culture that underlies the department’s siloed structure." https://lnkd.in/ee7gKpGt. 3. Paula Osborn, who was just appointed as the Deputy Chief Data and AI Office at State following her success in leading the data program at the U.S. Department of State - Bureau of International Organization Affairs. She offers an excellent and illuminating case study of data and AI adoption in that Bureau. https://lnkd.in/eMjZwR3m 4. Zed Tarar offers a great primer for AI policy, addressing some really fundamental questions, including: How to think about AI? Is AI a national security threat? and Are global AI rules necessary? https://lnkd.in/e-8FpsYP 5. Evanna Hu warns that "AI will change our social contract nationally and with the international community." She makes a powerful case for the State Department to help develop a vision of how AI will be integrated into our democratic society. https://lnkd.in/ekh9wG-e 6. Bonus: Eric Bernau's article envisions an algorithm that can improve the job assignment process, helping better match skills with job requirements. https://lnkd.in/e9YdY_wP And Darrow Godeski Merton's submission (which took second place in the annual writing contest) discusses the promise of AI for improving efficiency at State. https://lnkd.in/ekdeidvm 👉 What struck me most about these set of contributions is that each of them care about strong US foreign policy first and foremost. None argue for AI and data for their own sake, and none are pollyannaish or hyperbolic. These folks aren't run-of-the-mill armchair prognosticators. These are practitioners with skin in the game for US foreign policy. I hope you learn as much from these articles as I did. https://lnkd.in/eX-wUYCM

Freelance Public Relations Practitioner, Media Advisor, Researcher and Writer | Barista
Believe it or not, journalists and historians share similar disciplines and obligations yet remain distinct enough to be separate entities. But how is this? I have precise theory and explanation. "...Journalists actively engage in public forums, recording and criticising histories... Historians on the other hand, passively observe then record histories, with varying perspectives of issues derived from their scholarly stances..." You can read more below... https://lnkd.in/guQnvAwy

WEBINAR SERIES COUNTERING POLARISATION Media and Communication in Divided Societies Polarisation — the division of society into antagonistic us-them groups — is a global phenomenon. Historic cleavages based on ethnicity or religion may date back to the formation of nation-states; economic resentments may be the proximate trigger of current trends. But there is also a discursive dimension to polarisation: us-them divides are produced, perpetuated, and intensified through media and communication. Conversely, it may be possible to counter polarisation discursively, by correcting the lie of exclusive and unitary identities, and promoting more inclusive notions of peoplehood. This webinar series discusses such efforts on various fronts around the world. It is chaired by Cherian George, who is doing research for a book on this topic. Ayala Panievsky — The Challenge for Journalism in Polarised Societies Wed 21 Feb, 10–11am UTC Register here: https://lnkd.in/ddFR4gfH From: Cherian George, School of Communication, Hong Kong Baptist University
