Artificial Intelligence, Social Security, Fraud Detection, Society 5.0Abstract
This article examines the transformation of Brazilian Social Security by Artificial Intelligence (AI) within the Society 5.0 paradigm. It discusses AI's potential to optimize public administration and strengthen social protection, with a particular focus on its effectiveness in detecting social security fraud, aiming to protect public funds and safeguard beneficiaries' dignity. Concurrently, the study explores the ethical and legal challenges inherent in this technological implementation, addressing data privacy and security, the mitigation of algorithmic biases, and the crucial need for accountability and human oversight of automated decisions. It concludes that the strategic adoption of AI represents a promising path towards more efficient and transparent public management, provided it is guided by principles of justice, equity, and respect for fundamental rights, thus paving the way for a truly inclusive Society 5.0.
