Rewiring Democracy: How AI Will Transform Our Politics, Government, and Citizenship
Rewiring Democracy examines how artificial intelligence is changing the way democratic institutions operate. Bruce Schneier and Nathan E. Sanders describe how algorithmic tools influence legislation, enforcement, and legal interpretation, altering the pace and character of governmental work. They show how automated systems can redirect authority inside public institutions and complicate traditional oversight. The authors argue that meaningful public involvement is necessary to prevent decision-making from becoming dominated by technical systems that few people understand. The book considers how democratic norms can be maintained as governments incorporate AI into routine processes and high-stakes policy decisions.
