RECALIBRATING GLOBAL DIPLOMACY IN THE AGE OF AUTONOMOUS AI AND CLIMATE GEOPOLITICS: A MULTILATERAL FRAMEWORK FOR ETHICAL AI GOVERNANCE AND STRATEGIC STABILITY IN A POST-PLATFORM WORLD

The convergence of autonomous artificial intelligence (AI) systems and climate-induced geopolitical instability has redefined global diplomacy in the post-platform digital age. This paper proposes a multilateral framework to ensure ethical AI governance and strategic equilibrium, leveraging cooperative models that address both digital and ecological frontiers. The study examines evolving power dynamics, explores policy voids in current international treaties, and presents actionable protocols for AI-aligned diplomacy. The integration of ethical norms, sovereign digital standards, and environmental interdependence are emphasized as foundational to sustainable and peaceful global engagement.
