How Candidates Could Use AI for Good

Schneier and Sanders argue US candidates should use AI for broad listening and voter engagement, citing Japan's Team Mirai and civic tech tools.

Schneier on Security published an essay arguing candidates in the US midterms could use AI constructively rather than only for deepfakes and one-way messaging. It highlights Japan's Team Mirai party, whose AI interviewer has gathered over 300,000 messages across 16,000 interviews and helped the party win 12 Diet seats. Other cited tools include Scotland-funded CrownShy's Comhairle, deliberation.io, MIT's Cortico, Talk to the City, and Remesh. Higher Ground Labs launched a fund targeting AI-native campaign systems.
