World’s First AI Mayoral Candidate Promises Fair And Balanced Politics by revontuli(op): 2:24pm On Apr 17, 2018
Artificial Intelligence can’t legally run for high-ranking public administration positions yet, but one mayoral candidate from Tama City, Tokyo, intends to maximize the use of artificial intelligence in running municipal affairs, so he’s running his campaign as ‘AI Mayor’. Basically, he’s proposing replacing human public officials with AI and having them collect city data and create fair and balanced policies that will benefit everyone.

“For the first time in the world, AI will run in an election,” human candidate Michihito Matsuda announced on Twitter. “Artificial intelligence will change Tama City. With the birth of an AI-Mayor, we will conduct impartial and balanced politics. We will implement policies for the future with speed, accumulate information and know-how, and lead the next generation.”

44-year-old Matsuda also ran for mayor of Tama City in 2014, but lost by a large margin. This time around, he merely aims to act as an avatar for the AI he is convinced can make better decisions than any human can ever hope to. Not to mention that artificial intelligence is much less susceptible to corruption.

I'm disappointed no one made any comments!
Wouldn't you guys want to replace Buhari with an AI?

Benefits of Ai politicians:
-They are not corrupt. They don't steal.
-They don't do nepotism and favoritisim, they will distribute the national wealth equally
-They have no tribal associations
-They have no human emotions and weakness
-They will calculate the most logical and efficient solutions
-They can work 24/7 with no break
-They aren't affected by sickness and old age
-They won't have any scandals
