Neurotechnologies and Artificial Intelligence in Public Administration: Application Practice and Possible Ways of Development

Abstract

Over the past few years, the field of artificial intelligence and neurotechnology has moved beyond the scope of exclusive scientific discussion to the realm of public policy. The state is an important participant in technological progress, which allows us to consider in detail the connection between government officials and neurosciences, because, according to a large number of scientists, it is this segment of sciences that will allow humanity to transition to a new technological order. The purpose of this study is to consider the theoretical foundations of the interaction of the subjects of the public administration system with end-to-end technologies and to search for practical examples of the implementation of this interaction. In the course of the work such methods as theoretical analysis, comparison and contrast, cognitive method, system analysis, and analysis of statistical data were used. The theoretical foundations of the study of neurotechnologies, as well as the market of the existing neuroprosthetics products, were considered. The authors of the research studied and compared examples of the development of plans and the application of artificial intelligence and neurotechnologies in such countries as Russia, the United States, and the United Kingdom, and analysed global rankings of digitalisation of public administration. Based on this, it was concluded that countries are actively participating in a new technological race, trying to introduce artificial intelligence in the field of public administration in order to gain their own advantage, however the sluggishness of states in the development of neurotechnologies, with subsequent implementation in the public sector, was noted, and the fact of significant differences in the understanding of artificial intelligence in public administration around the world was revealed. This fact creates a field for further research and discussion. The results of the research can be used in the framework of further study of the analyzed aspects by scientific and research organizations, within the framework of the activities of federal authorities, as well as private companies.
