AI Steve EXCLUSIVE interview -- The First AI Politician to run for UK Parliament | Steve Endacott

E55 • Jun 26, 2024 • 49 mins

In today's episode, we're joined by Steve Endicott, an English Businessman running to be a Member of Parliament in the UK, representing Brighton and Hove. He's using an AI Avatar "AI Steve" to help him connect with his constituants. Steve provides insights into the dual aspects of AI as both an opportunity and a threat to democracy. We also explore the training of "AI Steve," an avatar of businessman Steven Endacott, its applications in government, healthcare, and global communication, and its impact on politics, governance, and democratic practices.

Key Points

  • AI, like the industrial revolution, presents both massive opportunities and threats, necessitating proactive government oversight to ensure its benefits outweigh its risks.
  • AI Steve, an AI avatar trained on political policies, offers a 24/7 platform for constituents to engage with and provide feedback on political issues, helping to democratize and increase accessibility in political discourse.
  • Using AI in governance can streamline public services like healthcare and policing by automating administrative tasks, thereby allowing professionals to focus more on their core duties.
