"I thought I was assuming my rights under the 9th Amendment, and the last time I read the Constitution it didn't say nothing about me not allowed to pee in this alley, Officer."
Seems our options are a) deal with the persistent stench of pee in alleyways, or b) deal with the fallout of men driven to madness by Navi the Crime Prevention Fairy.
I believe it already is. Someone I know pretty closely created an m&p for the team using chatGPT. So right off the bat there is someone's job that is being dictated by AI. Someone is legally obliged (for sake of employment) to follow an m&p generated by AI.
It doesn’t matter who writes the laws. It’s on whose behalf they are being written. And that’s already a tiny minority of extremely wealthy people with the power to manipulate public opinion and bribe politicians.
TLDR: Lobbyists are going to use AI to ply their nefarious trade more effectively. In order to stop them, Congress needs to stop passing "monolithic, multi-thousand-page omnibus bills voted on under deadline" and instead a bill should focus on individual area and undergo through a debate and deliberation process, and we need more transparency over the activities of lobbyists. I can see how the AI part might happen, sadly the rest doesn't seem realistic at all.
The AI with enough data about every individual in the population could find a series of law proposals to bring any end state, set by the AI creator. https://youtu.be/goQ4ii-zBMw
I wonder if microlaws might be part of a solution to legislative problems. We see endless shenanigans with ammendments and omnibuses. Forced atomic law structures which may be voted upon separately to end abuses. Revenue generation also reflects the fungibility better.
Regardless of what they say about the lotto and schools/seniors any funds to them results in corresponding reduction in general funding. We shouldn't be thinking X for Y based funding because it is fundamentally a lie. It all goes into the same budget stew.
Now that we don't need human legal experts anymore, there's no reason to not switch to a system based on sortition. Randomly select a deliberative citizens assembly and have them use AI to write the laws.

No. AI is not the oracle at Delphi.
