An interesting example occurred in Bucharest. For the first time in history, artificial intelligence will work in the civil service. Next, we’ll tell you what to do.

AI functions

reportedly Ion’s task will be to analyze traffic on social networks to identify the most pressing social and political issues of concern to the citizens of the country.. He will have to regularly gather information about the mood, problems and aspirations of the society, collect the views and complaints of the citizens, and then combine them and interpret them as policy ideas for the government. Romanian residents will be able to tell Ion their offers directly using a special web platform.

With the help of artificial intelligence, Ion will do what no human can: listen to all Romanians and represent them to the Romanian government,
– says Nikolai Chuke.

Critics of the innovation state that the working principle of Ion is not known by anyone. It’s unclear what algorithms he uses to analyze ideas. Can AI be biased, censor, identify people who are dissatisfied with the government’s work? Most likely, such functions are available to him, but who and how ruled Ion, the Romanian public was not informed. However, it cannot be overlooked that this is a large-scale experiment to find new ways to apply AI technologies.

Similar cases have already started to appear all over the world, and this is just the beginning. In Colombia, for example, a judge used a text generator to ask questions about a case he was presiding over. There was a dispute between a health insurance company and the parents of a child with autism about whether the child could be covered for treatment. The court used artificial intelligence to raise legal questions about the case and incorporated the answers into its decision.
