ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN ENSURING INFORMATION TRUST AS A PREREQUISITE FOR THE POST-WAR ECONOMIC RECOVERY OF UKRAINE
Abstract
The article is devoted to the study of the role of artificial intelligence in ensuring information trust as one of the key prerequisites for the post-war economic recovery of Ukraine. The research examines the growing impact of disinformation campaigns, cyber threats, coordinated information operations, and manipulative digital content on economic resilience, investment attractiveness, and public confidence in state institutions. It is argued that in the context of hybrid warfare, information trust should be considered not only as a component of information security but also as an important economic resource that influences business activity, international cooperation, and sustainable development. The paper analyzes the potential of artificial intelligence technologies, including machine learning, natural language processing, computer vision, and generative AI, for automated monitoring of the information environment, detection of fake news, identification of coordinated disinformation campaigns, fact-checking, and forecasting information risks. Particular attention is paid to the opportunities and challenges associated with the application of AI in public administration and strategic communications. The study proposes an original conceptual model illustrating the relationship between artificial intelligence, information trust, and the post-war economic recovery of Ukraine. The model demonstrates how AI technologies contribute to the formation of a trustworthy information environment, strengthen transparency and accountability of public institutions, improve communication between the government, businesses, and society, and ultimately create favorable conditions for attracting investment, developing the digital economy, and accelerating European integration. The article also substantiates practical directions for implementing the proposed model through the development of a national AI-based information monitoring system, improvement of digital literacy, support for independent fact-checking initiatives, and harmonization of Ukraine's regulatory framework with the European Union's approaches, including the AI Act and the Digital Services Act.
