Det Syntetiske Parti (English: The Synthetic Party) is the world's first political party driven by artificial intelligence (AI), founded in May 2022 in Denmark.[1][2][3] It aims to represent non-voters and fringe political parties while raising awareness of AI's societal role and exploring how AI can be integrated into democratic processes.[4]
Founder
[edit]A philosopher from Aarhus University and a conceptual artist Asker Bryld Staunæs is the party founder and continuous party secretary.[5]
Main goal
[edit]The political goals have been machine learned from texts by Danish fringe parties since 1970 and represent the 20 percent of Danes who do not vote in the election. The party is synthetic; as such, many of the policies, such as universal basic income, can be contradictory to one another.
International collaborations
[edit]The Synthetic Party has signed bilateral collaboration agreements with the Finnish AI Party[6] and The Japanese AI Party[7] concerning the development of a global project created around artificial intelligence and politics[8]
