      abstract = {Artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping how sovereignty is understood and practiced. No longer confined to territorial authority, sovereignty now reaches into digital infrastructures, data governance, and collective rights, including those of Indigenous peoples. This paper synthesizes recent developments in policy and scholarship to show how AI simultaneously strengthens state capacity and challenges state authority, how digital sovereignty is becoming a strategic priority for states, and how Indigenous Data Sovereignty (IDS) demands new ethical and legal approaches. The analysis concludes with practical recommendations for policymakers, governance professionals, and Indigenous authorities.},
