Abstract

This study explores the impact of Large Language Models (LLMs) on digital diplomacy and their role in international relations. LLMs have the potential to enhance diplomatic processes by overcoming language barriers, increasing mutual understanding through real-time translation, and automating diplomatic communications. However, they also present significant challenges, including risks of misinformation and the need for robust data security measures. Developing international standards and ethical guidelines for the use of LLMs in diplomatic contexts is essential to fully leverage their potential and mitigate associated risks. Emphasizing human oversight in the deployment of LLMs in sensitive diplomatic scenarios will ensure that digital diplomacy improves rather than complicates international relations.

Özet

Bu makale, Büyük Dil Modellerinin (BDM) dijital diplomasi üzerindeki etkilerini ve uluslararası ilişkilerdeki rolünü incelemektedir. BDM’ler, dil bariyerlerini aşarak, gerçek zamanlı çeviri ile karşılıklı anlayışı artırma ve diplomatik iletişimleri otomatikleştirme yoluyla diplomatik süreçleri iyileştirme potansiyeline sahiptir. Ancak, yanıltıcı bilgi yayılma (halüsinasyon) riski ve veri güvenliği önlemleri gereksinimi gibi önemli zorluklar da beraberinde getirmektedir. BDM’lerin potansiyelini diplomaside tam olarak kullanabilmek ve bu riskleri azaltmak için uluslararası standartlar ve etik kuralların inşa edilmesi şarttır.
