Det Syntetiske Parti (English: The Synthetic Party) is the world's first political party driven by artificial intelligence[1][2] with the goal of making generative text-to-text models not merely populist, what they are by default, but democratic.[3] The party was founded in 2022 in Denmark.[4]
AI is already populist by default in a certain sense (...) But even if it's populist, it's not democratic just yet.[3]
Founder[edit]
A philosopher from Aarhus University and a conceptual artist Asker Bryld Staunæs is the party founder and continuous party secretary.[5]
Main goal[edit]
The political goals have been machine learned from texts by Danish fringe parties since 1970 and represent the 20 percent of Danes who do not vote in the election. It's a synthetic party, so many of the policies, such as universal basic income, can be contradictory to one another.
International collaborations[edit]
The Synthetic Party has signed bilateral collaboration agreements with The Finnish AI Party[6] and The Japanese AI Party[7] concerning the development of a global project created around artificial intelligence and politics[8]
