Artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming economies, institutions, and everyday life. But its most profound impact may be political.
In AI-CRACY, Agustín Galán Machío argues that artificial intelligence is not simply a technological innovation — it represents a structural transformation in the way power operates in modern societies.
As algorithmic systems increasingly mediate decision-making in governments, markets, and digital platforms, sovereignty itself begins to migrate toward computational infrastructures. The result is a new political condition: AI-CRACY, a regime in which governance is shaped by algorithmic architectures that structure knowledge, prediction, and social coordination.
Drawing on political theory, sociology of ignorance, and the geopolitics of digital technology, the book explores:

• how AI reorganizes the production of knowledge and artificial ignorance
• how cyber-capitalism concentrates power through data and digital infrastructures
• how digital empires compete for technological sovereignty
• how democratic governance can remain possible in a world of algorithmic power

Rather than predicting a technological apocalypse or a utopian future, AI-CRACY offers a critical framework for understanding the political struggles already unfolding around artificial intelligence.
The central question is not whether machines will rule the world.
The real question is whether societies will retain the capacity to govern the infrastructures that shape their collective future.

A political theory of artificial intelligence and the transformation of sovereignty in the digital age.

AI-CRACY offers a powerful and original framework for understanding the political implications of artificial intelligence. By linking algorithmic governance to questions of sovereignty, knowledge, and global power, Agustín Galán Machío provides one of the most conceptually ambitious analyses of AI and politics to date. This is an important contribution to contemporary debates on democracy in the digital age.
