Features of Paradigm for forming anti-cataclysmic instruments for preventing aggressive interstate conflicts – artificial intelligence (AI) in terms of ensuring objective personnel... by B. M. Andrushkiv, L. S. Golovkova, N. B. Kyrych, O. B. Pohajdak, K. Hannouf

“…The authors argues that the introduction of AI can ensure not only the purity and high quality of managerial personnel, but also use the means for humanitarian selection of applicant members, for example, to the UN, strengthening administrative discipline and organising control over the implementation of decisions in this structure. By improving the management of these factors at the local level, it is possible to ensure not only the appropriate quality of managerial decisions and prevention of abuse, but also peace in society and stable functioning of national economies, which can make them competitive in the EU.…”
