For centuries, diplomacy has been humanity’s most elegant disguise for deceit. Treaties are broken before their ink dries, and the pursuit of peace has become a theatre of power. Algorithmic Diplomacy tears away this illusion, asking the most dangerous question of the twenty-first century: what if the only path to lasting peace is to surrender politics to reason itself? Boris Kriger envisions a world where nations speak not through fear and vanity, but through a transparent architecture of artificial intelligences bound by international law.

What is happening to us as a species, and where are we heading as a society? Are we living in a free world under a silent artificial-intelligence control?

The Philosophy of Truth tries to answer these questions by venturing down rabbit holes of thought, theorizing on potential causes and effects. From observations to firsthand accounts, this book is an awakening for those ready to open their eyes and look beyond the surface level outcomes.
