Just a general discussion and thought about the idea of either a government run by AI - I have two ideas in mind.
A. Local governments once again gain more power and precedence over federal governments as each faces its own unique issues. These governments are mostly AI run, with humans in oversight positions. If something gets fucked up somewhere along the chain, the elected officials are usually blamed. The federal government's only real purpose by this point is to ensure economic balance, scientific research, national security and political unity, much of which is handled at the local level anyway, so usually the feds are seen as idiots debating over pointless topics for political gain.
B. The government is entirely digitalized and retains all power but also remains benevolent to humanity.
The other option in this experiment is a technocracy, basically in which the government is staffed and run primarily by scientists, engineers and technologists. The scientific method is applied to the system of government. Further development of science and technology becomes the main focus on society. Technologists replace bureaucrats.
