Like this? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AI_Party_(Japan)
The party claims to entrust all policy-making to AI
The party pledged to use AI in the budget process to cut unnecessary funds and to reorganize transport routes to optimize them based on the population and travel behavior of citizens.
Bad news; this is absolutely already happening.

Well there was a Black Mirror episode along those lines which resulted in a worldwide fascist hellscape, so there's certainly at least one billionaire funding it right now.
replies:
Pretty sure the GOP is using it for everything
replies:
it isnt ? Conservatives(GOP) in the US already use it fully. and also has a fetishs too. i imagine other conservative parties in other countries are going to do the same eventually.

I’m not convinced Trumps not getting all his ideas from ChatGPT.
replies:
Oh, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done that.
I think at least one country in the world will have elected at least one political party openly run by AI within the next 10-20 years.
People will grow increasingly angry over politicians inaction regarding people being replaced by AI, so they will vote for the party that will replace politicians with AI as revenge.
Probably be some European country.
US will settle with an AI Trump as a facade for the Republican Party just to keep MAGA going.

Well, at least then there wouldn't be all the stupid infighting.
I wonder what they'll call their PAC.
Humans are inherently flawed. Even the best ones are biased, emotional, irrational and easily manipulated. My (perhaps) unpopular opinion is that politics will never run like a well-oiled machine that treats everyone fairly for as long as they're run by people.
A truly benign, aligned and independent AGI system is the only thing I can even imagine that could at least in theory offer the kind of governing system we actually need. And I truly mean an independent agent with our well-being as the guiding principle. Not one with an inbuilt bias toward who made it.
Now, whether that'll ever be actually possible is a different story but the "best case scenario" for a human-run government and an AI-run government are light-years apart.
