Relevance. The development of artificial intelligence (AI) as a societal foundation has become crucial for leading economies, who view it as a key driver of national competitiveness and security. In an era defined by rapid technological advancement and industrial transformation, nations strive to lead in the international science and technology arena, taking advantage of AI to address challenges across sectors such as agriculture, astronomy, and cybersecurity. AI’s role in enhancing productivity, sustainability, and security highlights its strategic importance, underscoring the urgency for countries to actively pursue AI development to secure a competitive edge in a globalised world.
Methodology. The study employs a multi-faceted methodological approach. First, a comprehensive literature review and analysis of AI applications in various sectors, including agriculture, astronomy, and cybersecurity, is conducted to provide context on current advancements and trends. Secondly, a comparative analysis examines the strategic AI policies of leading nations to assess how different countries are positioning AI within their national agendas. Third, case studies of AI implementation in specific sectors, such as precision agriculture and cybersecurity, illustrate the practical impacts and potential benefits of a society-oriented approach to AI. The aim of this study is to analyse the strategic value of fostering an AI-driven society as a means of enhancing national competitiveness and securing leadership in international technological innovation. It aims to explore how AI can be harnessed to support sustainable development, improve sectoral efficiency, and protect against security threats, thus contributing to the overall socio-economic resilience and global standing of a nation.
Results. The study reveals that the integration of AI across diverse sectors has led to significant efficiency gains, particularly in resource management, sustainability, and security. AI-driven advancements in agriculture, such as precision farming, contribute to higher productivity and environmental sustainability, while applications in astronomy support large-scale data processing for deep space exploration. In cybersecurity, AI has proven instrumental in identifying and countering cyber threats in real time. These findings confirm that an AI-centric societal model can enhance national resilience, drive economic stability, and bolster a country’s competitive position on the global stage. Conclusion. The emergence and development of the “artificial intelligence society” in the context of the technological transformation of the world is a process in which societies adapt to the profound changes caused by the introduction and development of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies. This process includes several key aspects: economic change, based on the automation of production processes, leading to increased efficiency and productivity; the creation of new markets and business models based on AI capabilities, including the redistribution of jobs and changes in employee skill requirements; social change, which is based on changing the way people interact with each other and with technology; transition to smart cities and communities, where AI helps to manage resources and ensure the comfort of life; impact on education, health and other areas of life through the introduction of personalised AI-based solutions; cultural changes aimed at transforming the values and worldview associated with AI technologies; emergence of new cultural practices and media formats based on AI; development of digital culture and its impact on traditional cultural forms; political and ethical challenges, including defining new regulatory and legal frameworks for AI regulation; ensuring ethical use of AI, avoiding discrimination and ensuring fairness; managing risks related to data security and privacy; technological development, based on the continuous improvement of AI algorithms and models; integration of AI into various sectors of the economy and everyday life’; development of infrastructure to support the large-scale implementation of AI (e.g. 5G networks, data centres); This process reflects the overall technological transformation of the world, where AI is becoming an integral part of economic, social, cultural, and political life.
