Biopolitics in the Era of Coronavirus and Artificial Intelligence

The problem of the survival of humankind has acquired a new relevance. If recently the whole world was horrified by the prospects of a nuclear war, now the value priorities have shifted from the technogenic forms of struggle of some states and peoples against others to bio-political constants. Although the issues of viral infection, as well as the social consequences of the use of AI technologies concern all 8 billion earthlings, however, the biopolitics in the era of coronavirus and AI reflects all the same patterns: not solidarity in research and solving problems, but rivalry and absolutization of national interest. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
