The Japanese political party "Path to Awakening" has elected artificial intelligence as its "new leader," AFP reported.
According to reports, the party's previous leader, Shinji Isimaru, resigned due to unexpected results in the upper house elections held in July. Isimaru founded the "Path to Awakening" party in January, and he previously served as the mayor of the small city of Akitakata in western Japan. The party does not have a clear political platform, and its members have the freedom to formulate their programs.
In place of Isimaru, the party announced that the 25-year-old graduate student Koki Okumura, who won the internal election, "the new leader will be artificial intelligence." This announcement demonstrates the party's openness to future technological innovations and its commitment to applying artificial intelligence in political activities.
According to AFP, a university student studying artificial intelligence has stated that he could act as an assistant to the party's "new leader." Okumura, who officially leads the party, argues that AI does not dictate members' political decisions, but rather helps effectively manage internal processes such as the allocation of resources and responsibilities among group members.
According to the report, none of the 42 candidates nominated by the "Path to the Renaissance" in the Tokyo Prefectural Parliamentary Elections in June were elected to the legislature. In July, the party nominated 10 candidates for the upper house elections, but all of them lost, tass.ru reported.
This innovation shows that the Japanese political scene can be changed through technological innovation and artificial intelligence. Such steps by the party are attracting the attention of not only journalists and political analysts, but also generate widespread discussions in the country about the use of artificial intelligence in state and political institutions.
The main conclusion from this situation is that technology and artificial intelligence can create new opportunities and changes not only in everyday life but also in the political system.
