Would you vote for an AI politician or Simon Harris? Or a robot or Donald Trump?
Thomas R Weaver’s dystopian fiction Artificial Wisdom: A Novel imagines a world where by 2050 people are choosing between a human and an AI politician?
On Free State we talk to him about the reality of AI and what science fiction can tell us about the world in 25 years’ time.
People would never vote for AI to rule them we believe, but is that realistic? Is it any more preposterous than the idea of Donald Trump as president was ten years ago?
