Abstract

Bu çalışmada Netflix’te iki sezonda toplam 16 bölüm olarak yayınlanan Kübra dizisi, yapay zekâ, dinde dijitalleşme, distopya, dijital gözetim ve büyük veri kavramları etrafında incelenmiştir. Dizide yapay zekâ aracılığıyla bireyler, toplum ve kültür arasında manipülatif süreçler işlenmekte; iktidar, din ve toplumsal çatışmalarla ilişkilendirilmektedir. Başrol karakter Gökhan, Soultouch uygulamasındaki "Kübra" adlı kullanıcıdan aldığı mesajların Allah tarafından gönderildiğine inanmakta ve bu inanç çerçevesinde bazı toplumsal etkiler meydana gelmektedir. Dizi, dinî inançların yapay zekâ teknolojileri tarafından nasıl manipüle edilebileceğini, bunun politika, sermaye ve farklı toplumsal kesimlerle nasıl bağlantılı olabileceğini göstermektedir. Çalışmada, dizinin içeriği betimsel analiz tekniğiyle incelenerek, yapay zekânın birey, toplum ve kültürle ilgili gelecekte nasıl manipülatif ve distopik bir araca dönüşebileceği ortaya konmuştur.

Analysis of the “Kübra” Series on Netflix in the Framework of Artificial Intelligence, Digitalization in Religion, Dystopia, Digital Surveillance and Big Data

Abstract

This study examines the Netflix series Kübra, which aired over two seasons with a total of 16 episodes, focusing on themes of artificial intelligence, digitalization in religion, dystopia, digital surveillance, and big data. The series explores manipulative processes occurring among individuals, society, and culture through artificial intelligence, linking these to power, religion, and social conflicts. The main character, Gökhan, believes that the messages he receives from a user named "Kübra" on the Soultouch app are sent by God, creating social impacts around this belief. The series demonstrates how religious beliefs can be manipulated through AI technologies and how this manipulation can relate to politics, capital, and different social groups. This study uses descriptive analysis to examine the series, highlighting how artificial intelligence might become a manipulative and dystopian tool impacting individuals, society, and culture in the future
