Resumen

The irruption of artificial intelligence requires evaluating its effects on Democracy and the Constitutional State. The fear of being replaced by our own creations is old, however, the danger of a tool capable of performing tasks typical of rationality implies for the first time being replaced in that characteristic that defines our species and on which we have built our legal and political existence. It is necessary to regulate the use of AI to protect the popular will, avoid behavioral manipulation, prevent the creation and use of autonomous weapons, prevent crime and other circumstances that alter Democracy. Discussing the role of Language and Truth in this regime implies identifying the characteristics that they will retain to maintain it and their usefulness against oppression, which would manifest itself in the control of AI by States or others interested in maintaining a power opposed to an open society.
