Social Implications of Implementing Artiﬁcial Intelligence: A Cultural Studies Perspective ] Július Rozenfeld, Slávka Tomaščíková Pavol Jozef Šafárik University in Košice Košice, Slovakia [Abstract] Humankind is entering a period in which it will share its formerly exclusive domain of the intellect with an entity which has the potential to outperform current human abilities, skills, and intellectual achievements. The objective of this paper is to consider the speciﬁc consequences of the introduction of technologies employing artiﬁcial intelligence in the domains of culture, education, family life and work and to evaluate its impact on the cohesive powers that allow for the creation, maintenance, and development of human communities. The authors argue that certain features embedded in ﬁction and non‑ﬁction ﬁlms depicting the eﬀects of this technology can be considered primitive behavioural experiments, and that their analysis allows for the possibility to make informed judgements about the nature and potential impact of artiﬁcial intelligence on human collective behaviour.
