Means of verbalization of the concept ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE in the Russian professional and political discourse

Nowadays the world is experiencing significant modernization, largely influenced by advanced technologies. The study of the notion ARTIFICIAL INTELLEGENCE in Russian political and professional discourse is relevant due to the widespread implementation of AI systems in all areas of public life. Therefore, key political figures and IT-specialists remain actively engaged in discussing this phenomenon, leading to the transformation of the notion into an ideologeme. Verbalization of ideologemes in various discourses has recently been extensively explored by linguists. In this study we employ the socio-pragmatic approach (Van Dyck, 1998; Fairclough, 2015; Foucault, 1996) to comprehend discourse and the linguo-cognitive perspective in defining an ideologeme (Zhuravlev, 2004; Malysheva, 2009). Previous research on ideologemes has mainly used qualitative analytical methods, but there is a lack of research based on corpus technologies. The purpose of the present investigation is to identify, to analyze and to compare the means of verbalization of the notion ARTIFICAL INTELLEGENCE in Russian political and professional discourse. The current study combines computer linguistic methods to extract the data and corpus linguistic methods and qualitative-quantitative content analysis to analyze it. The research project might result in effective identification of verbalization ARTIFICIAL INTELLEGENCE notion.
