Summary
This summary is machine-generated.Artificial intelligence (AI) technologies are reshaping international norms by influencing both "oughtness" and "standard" practices. Understanding AI
Area Of Science
- International Relations (IR)
- Artificial Intelligence (AI) Governance
- Sociology of Norms
Background
- Current norm research in IR inadequately addresses AI's impact on normative substance.
- Existing studies predominantly focus on public norm emergence and pre-set normativity, overlooking practical, practice-based normality.
Purpose Of The Study
- To propose a research agenda for understanding AI's role in shaping practical normativity and normality.
- To examine how AI design and usage practices, often outside public view, generate norms.
- To analyze the interplay between normality and normativity in AI-driven contexts.
Main Methods
- Conceptual analysis of AI's influence on norm formation.
- Critique of existing International Relations norm research frameworks.
- Proposal of a new research program focusing on AI and practical normativity/normality.
Main Results
- AI technologies create norms through operational practices, often beyond public scrutiny.
- The interplay between normality (standard practices) and normativity (oughtness) is crucial for understanding AI's normative impact.
- Over-reliance on AI may diminish human agency and introduce non-human generated normativity.
Conclusions
- AI presents a significant, under-researched challenge for norm studies.
- New theoretical perspectives are needed to grasp AI's normative influence and inform AI regulation.
- The study highlights the need to consider AI's impact on both established and emerging norms in international relations.

Today, scientists agree that good research is ethical in nature and is guided by a basic respect for human dignity and safety. However, this has not always been the case. Modern researchers must demonstrate that the research they perform is ethically sound.
Research Involving Human Participants
Any experiment involving the participation of human subjects is governed by extensive, strict guidelines designed to ensure that the experiment does not result in harm. Any research institution that...
Cognitive psychology is the field of psychology dedicated to examining how people think. It attempts to explain how and why we think the way we do by studying the interactions among human thinking, emotion, creativity, language, and problem-solving, as well as other cognitive processes. Cognitive psychology studies how information is processed and manipulated in remembering, thinking, and knowing.
This field emerged in the mid-20th century, following a period dominated by behaviorism, which...
In psychology, concepts can be divided into two categories: natural and artificial. Natural concepts are formed through direct or indirect experiences. For example, consider the concept of snow. If you live in a place with regular snowfall, such as Essex Junction, Vermont, you know snow through direct experiences. You’ve seen it fall, touched it, shoveled it, and played in it. You recognize its texture, appearance, and even its smell. In contrast, if you live on an island like Saint...
If you want to understand how behavior occurs, one of the best ways to gain information is to simply observe the behavior in its natural context. However, people might change their behavior in unexpected ways if they know they are being observed. How do researchers obtain accurate information when people tend to hide their natural behavior? As an example, imagine that your professor asks everyone in your class to raise their hand if they always wash their hands after using the restroom. Chances...
Cognitive psychology emerged as a significant field in the mid-20th century. It focused on understanding humans' internal mental processes. This approach emphasizes how people perceive, remember, think, and solve problems—elements critical to human cognition.
Previously dominated by behaviorism, which prioritized observable behaviors and largely ignored mental processes, psychology transformed in the 1950s. Cognitive psychologists argue that understanding how we think and process...
A revisionist approach to Jean Piaget's theory of cognitive development has brought new insights that challenge and reinterpret his established ideas. Piaget proposed that the formal operational stage, emerging in adolescence, represents the culmination of cognitive maturity. During this stage, individuals are said to develop abstract thinking, engage in systematic problem-solving, and show a form of egocentrism, believing others are as preoccupied with their behavior as they are...
