One step closer to Managed Democracy.
It's an idea from a video game where AI is spying on your life 24/7 and infers who you would vote for so you never actually need to (or can) vote.

Reminds me of this short story by Asimov with nobody votes anymore just computer predicts the outcome. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franchise_(short_story)
What if the AI looked at all the data and voted for the representatives who'd be best to better their "master"'s life?
Although then, Zuck's, Bezos' and Musk's AI would still send out lobbyists to manipulate politicians to fuck us plebs over (Hah, the overpaid codemonkey thinks he's a pleb...).
It'll be a future when an AI orders escorts be sent to Supreme Court justices' rooms in the golf vacations paid for by the billionaire. "Data says, Justice [____] likes long haired blondes with nice buttocks, send Tiffany. She should bring beer, he likes beer.".
From a cynical point of view, the point of democracy is to get the people to blame each other - for voting for the wrong party, for not voting at all, for voting for one of the two big parties or for voting for the spoiler. And thus prevent revolution or murder of politicians.
Inferring who you would vote for doesn't accomplish this as well.
