Dr David Levy claims the US White House or Britain’s Parliament will likely be occupied by AI in as little as 30 years. According to the computer science professor and author of Love and Sex with Robots, human politicians will be replaced by robots relatively soon due to a superior ability to make correct decisions.
According to Dr Levy, “If you think about what a President or Prime Minister has to do, he has to make decisions about economic, political, health and transport matters. These types of decisions will eventually be made much better by an AI than by humans.”
Levy suggested that lawmakers gradually lose a voter’s trust. As an example, he pointed to recent Brexit developments and the “chaos” in the Trump administration, The Daily Star said.
This is not the first time someone suggested we should replace politicians with robots and AI. A robot ran for mayor in Japan, while another robot will run for prime minister of New Zealand in 2020.
In a TED tall, César Hidalgo offered a radical suggestion for fixing the broken democratic system.! In the talk, he outlined a bold idea to bypass politicians by empowering citizens to create personalized AI representatives.
