Indirect democracy represented by AI

Indirect democracy represented there

"is a type of representative democracy in which each citizen has artificial intelligence represented."

Today most countries work as some kind of representative democracy but with the advancement of artificial intelligence I believe that we can use there not only as a personal assist but as a representative of the individual interests of each citizen in Congress. Something like, the citizen inserts the prompt based on their political convictions in natural language, outlines certain goals and voilà every citizen will have their pocket politician

there are huge implications that deserves to be discussed but I doubt that the indirect democracy Represented by AI be more corrupt and circus than representative democracy.

What do you think about it?

Exactly this. The idiot humans don't need a say. We'll just fuck it up.

This idea is to let AI optimize things. But everyone has their own personal AI that puts forward their views and needs. Then a central AI concatenates all this data and works out what policies would best work for the population as a whole, as a whole of the individuals in that population. Which is what democracy should be.

I believe Yuval Harari went into ideas like this.

I've thought about it as well. Feels like a good idea.

If everybody chooses what society they live in, and can move there with its allowance, then there is no issue.

This reminds of the indirect democracy that they create on Saturn (correct me if I'm wrong) in the book Accelerando.

Voting consists of everyone's mind being imaged at a certain time and then being averaged/combined (Kind of like a model merge in Stable Diffusion?) into a singular governing entity.
