Now I get it, duik is gonna be like, "are you crazy!? That's the antichrist! The devil wants to destroy all of gods creation so he is tricking us into falling for his trap!"

But strictly speaking utility, it would be vastly superior than ignorant humans voting even more ignorant humans into power.

"Your pretend pantheon makes zero difference, It's just that someone (NOT THE ANTICHRIST!!) will use it to control us and make us all worship him."

Agreed. But whos in charge of the A.I?
Diverting water isnt a simple thing. Turning a slow flowninto a swamp fundamentally changes whole biomes. Australia has been through this. Murray/Darling was/is still difficult. Throw in large corps that grow crops/harvest power and it becomes even more complex.

So yes. A.I could divide resources better.
Depending on who is in cahrge of the A.I.

That last sentence is by far the most important and one concept you seem to be missing.

Well it can ask us to do polls and we can believe that it matters like we do now.

Like, I literally have zero control over where water goes now even if I voted on that as a single issue voter.

With AI prob best to have people be able to like, step into varous rolls when they want to to fix things and then go back to AI controlling it.

Like, "ai has no idea how bad we want a lake in the middle of californai" so the towns get together elect a policy, and then the AI builds a big lake. idk something like that.


AI could probably even do the math to figure out all the different issues building a lake might effect, environmental, housing etc, and mediate debates between the groups, until votes are made.

Could even publicize news about the discussion, and deliver any info you could need about it.

It could theoretically be possible that you could talk to the AI as an individual, at any time, and it'd be like talking literally to the president. And it could literally parse and take compassionate and pragmatic arguments into consideration from everyone at once.
