What if we used the power of bazinga to remove all the nasty politics from government?

Surely, a chatbot, by virtue of being technology, would be the perfect dispenser of impartial, unbiased decisions to serve the common good the best. Would pre-existing prejudices, inequalities and superstitions be baked into the model from start? Would it reinforce the class power of the class that set it up in the first place? Would it be inflexible and conservative in the face of a changing world? No, absolutely not. It has computers in it and math that people can’t understand so it must be good!

If you read or listen to Audio books, I highly recommend Daemon by Daniel Suarez. It follows your train of thought fairly well.
