Yapay Zekâ Rekabeti Bağlamında Çin’in Ontolojik Güvenlik Algısı

Tarihsel olarak yaşadığı elim olaylar, Batı’nın tahayyülü ve geç modernleşme sürecinin de etkileri birlikte değerlendirildiğinde Çin’in kimlik algısında önemli izler bırakmıştır. Bu makale, ontolojik güvenlik arayışında olan Çin’in devlet rolüne odaklanmaktadır. Araştırmada ilk olarak, Çin’in, yapay zekâ teknolojisinde lider olma hedefine ulaşmak için gerçekleştirdiği eylemlerle, teknolojik üstünlük faktörüne dayalı olarak ABD’ye (Batı’ya) karşı ‘meydan okuyucu’ ve ‘büyük bir ticaret ulusu’ kimliğini güçlendirdiği ve başta ABD olmak üzere diğer devletlerle ilişki kurma rutinlerini geliştirerek ontolojik güvenlik arayışı davranışı sergilediği savunulmaktadır. Araştırmada ayrıca, Komünist Devrimle birlikte içeride başlatılan kalkınma hamlesi ve dışarıda yaşanan değişimleri takiben, Çin’in teknolojik gelişmeye dayanan büyük bir ticaret ulusu olarak nasıl ontolojik güvenlik arama çabasına giriştiği ortaya koyulmaktadır. Ontolojik güvenlik arayışı sürecini göstermek için yalnızca Çin’in yapay zekâ stratejisine odaklanılırken, Çin’in başka alanlardaki ontolojik güvenlik arayışlarını farklı şekillerde yönlendirdiği savlanmaktadır. Bu makalenin konusunu oluşturan küresel yapay zekâ rekabetinde Çin’in yerine ilişkin olarak, bu sürecin Çin’in başta ABD olmak üzere uluslararası ortamdaki diğer devletlere göre sahip olduğu konumu algılamasını güvence altına almak için hareket ettiği görülebilir.

China's Ontological Security Perception in the Context of Artificial Intelligence Competition

When the sad events that it has experienced historically, the imagination of the West and the effects of the late modernization process are evaluated together, they have left important traces in China's identity perception. This article focuses on the state role of China, which seeks ontological security. In the research, firstly, with the actions taken by China to achieve its goal of being a leader in artificial intelligence technology, it has strengthened its identity as a 'challenger' and 'great trading nation' against the USA (West) based on the factor of technological superiority, and the USA in particular It is argued that it exhibits ontological security-seeking behavior by developing routines to establish relations with other states, such as The research also reveals how China, as a major trading nation based on technological development, has attempted to seek ontological security, following the development move initiated inside with the Communist Revolution and the changes experienced abroad. While focusing only on China's artificial intelligence strategy to show the process of seeking ontological security, it is argued that China directs the search for ontological security in other areas in different ways. Regarding the place of China in the global artificial intelligence competition, which is the subject of this article, it can be seen that this process acts to ensure that China perceives its position relative to other states in the international environment, especially the USA.
