I don’t understand this idea completely myself but it’s an evolved form of technocracy with autonomous systems, suggest me some articles to read up on because in the field of politics I am quite illiterate. So it goes like this:

  • Multiple impenetrable, isolated AI expert systems that make rule based decisions (unlike black boxes, eg. LLMs).
  • All contribute to a notion and the decision will be picked much like in a distributed system, for fairness and equality.
  • Then humans are involved, but they too are educated, elected individuals and some clauses that stop them from gaming the system and corrupting it.
  • These human representatives can either pick from list of decisions from AI systems or support the already given notion or drop it altogether. They can suggest notions and let AI render it but humans can’t create notions directly.

Benefits:

  • Generally speaking, due to the way the system will be programmed, it won’t dominate or supress and most of the actions will be justified with a logic that puts human lives first and humans profit second.
  • No wars will break out since, it’s not human greed that’s holding the power
  • Defence against non-{systemized} states would be taken care by military and similar AI expert systems but the AI will never plan to expand or compromise a life of a human for offense

Cons:

  • Security vulnerabilities can target the system and take down the government’s corner piece
  • No direct representation of humans, only representation via votes on notions and suggestions to AI
  • Might end up in AI Apocalypse situation or something I dont know

The thoughts are still new to me, so I typed them out before thinking on paper. Hence, I am taking suggestions for this system!

tl;dr is let AI rule us, because hard coded-rule based decision maker is better than a group of humans whose intents can always be masked and unclear.

    If society is solid and supports evidenced based decision making the AI systems don’t need to be an explicit part of it because the humans will be coming to the same conclusions. If there is a significant portion of malicious humans like we have now, they will find ways to influence the outcome no matter how many barriers are in the way.

    The drawback is that humans are involved, and now have a handy AI to blame for anything they want to do. That includes going to war, because they will figure out a way to make that an outcome either by breaking or faking the process.

      absolutely agreed, the society wont let this system establish but let us assume it get’s established, my reasoning was, the chain of command would be simpler to see and everything would be transparent!
