FLASH FICTION FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF THE FOUNDER DESCRIBING THE CAMPAIGN’S ORIGIN:
On a typical day in my office, I found myself engrossed in research on AI and its potential applications. The idea hit me - ‘What if we could use AI technology to influence political outcomes?’ Things quickly progressed from there, and the seed of the “CyberCitizens” campaign was planted.
For days and nights, I immersed myself in data, scrutinizing the vast array of public opinion and sentiment towards political issues and elections. The military and defense sector emerged as a significant, influential voting bloc, yet often overlooked by traditional campaign strategies. The idea was bold but tantalizing – to build an alternative governance system that appealed directly to these voters, using the power of AI.
Building up the AI, ProtestGPT, was a challenge. Armed with passion, my team and I poured over countless numbers of policy documents, news articles, and historical data. We put our heart and soul into creating artificial intelligence that was not only adept at understanding political nuances but could also engage effectively with voters.
The first prototype of ProtestGPT was overwhelming. The AI’s effectiveness in creating realistic, compelling campaign strategies exceeded our wildest expectations. That moment made it abundantly clear - we were on the brink of revolutionizing political campaigns.
Now, as we are about to launch “CyberCitizens”, my heart flutters with anticipation. We are embarking on a journey to change the political landscape of the country – all with the power of AI.
