I would take the complete removal of meat-based politicians replaced with open-source AI with transparent training, weights, and a window into its decision/reasoning process open to the public at all times.

Voting for amendments will be implemented as pull requests :)

(aww downvotes.. can't believe people still willingly suck up for politicians)

Why not just direct democracy? We have the tech to do it all, no need to give up agency to whoever makes the model.

> Why not just direct democracy?

Do you honestly expect a handful of humans to make decisions for billions?

Or do you expect a million bureaucrats to coordinate efficiently and fairly?

If you mean literally every person should have an equal vote, how do marginal groups get to have a say?

Do marginal groups get to have a say now?

Your AI overlord has just declared war on France because of a hallucination.

Really?

Come now, do you seriously, deep in your heart of hearts, believe that it'll be WORSE than what we have had so far?

Can you recall 1 fucking year from all of humankind's entire history when there wasn't a war going on?

and the reasons for those wars?

Your AI overlord has just nuked Paris.

Is that even bad

Since we are using completely fictional scenarios to prescribe reality, there is at least one very popular TV/movie francise that depicts the end of scarcity occurs only after nuclear war.

Your meat overlords did that 81 years ago

then went on to bomb many more people
