= Pilot: AI-Driven Politician Agreement =

'''⚠️ This page is under construction.''' It lays out the first foundations of the concept. Nothing here is decided or operational: it is a candidate pilot under study, proposed as a basis for discussion.


== The concept ==

The AI-Driven Politician Agreement is envisioned as a contract between a political candidate and the citizens who support them. By signing it, the candidate would demonstrate a formal '''commitment''' (not just a motivation) to:

* defend '''needs that are independent of left and right''': balancing needs identified through [[wikipedia:Statistics|statistics]], not through the [[wikipedia:Left–right political spectrum|left-right divide]];
* '''respect popular votes''' and get personally involved in making them happen;
* carry '''[[wikipedia:Popular initiative|initiatives]], new articles of law, amendments and modifications''' that are always based on the [[wikipedia:Commons|common good]] and on the popular will of the majority;
* rely on the '''clarity of the majority will''': on most subjects, the popular will is not hesitant, it is clear. This clarity comes from [[wikipedia:Opinion poll|polls]] built on good, honest questions, not on questions that project fears.


== AI verification and the human verification committee ==

The founding principle of the agreement is that the candidate's message and the respect of their commitments would be '''verified by AI'''. This requires a clear introductory rule: '''behind the AI, there are humans'''.

A '''verification committee''' would stand behind the AI tooling. This committee:

* checks that the '''prompts''' used are correct and fair;
* '''chooses the AIs''' and makes their usage evolve, transferring from one AI to another as technology evolves;
* guarantees at the same time '''quality, honesty, ethics, [[wikipedia:Audit|audit]] and [[wikipedia:Transparency (behavior)|transparency]]''';
* maintains the '''indicators''' measuring whether the politician respects the commitments they have taken.

This intends to follow the same logic as WikiDeal's broader approach to [[Gov/en/Portal:Meta/Internal-AI|internal AI use]]: AI as a tool, humans as the accountable layer.


== The agreement at every stage ==

The contract is intended to accompany the politician at every step of a candidacy.


=== 1. Creating a support committee ===

The first step would be the creation of a '''support committee''', following the standard practice of electoral candidacies at any level (communal, cantonal or regional, national). Comparable standard forms include campaign committees and [[wikipedia:Political campaign|campaign organisations]], [[wikipedia:Political action committee|political action committees]] in the United States, and the "comité de soutien" tradition in French-speaking countries.

A guiding principle: '''the higher the level of the election, the larger the support committee must be'''. Otherwise it remains a support committee of principle only.

The committee is intended to evolve over time. Anyone could become a member, under conditions defined by each support committee and each politician, provided those conditions remain '''ethical, honest, acceptable, open, and based on the majority and on real needs'''.


=== 2. Filing the candidacy ===

The formal deposit of the candidacy, accompanied by the signed agreement.


=== 3. Campaign ===

During the [[wikipedia:Political campaign|campaign]], the candidate would build a '''program based on the most common needs''', as identified by honest polling and statistics, with AI-verified messaging supervised by the verification committee.


=== 4. Election and mandate ===

Once elected, the commitments keep applying: involvement, votes and legislative work would be tracked against the criteria defined in the agreement.


== Compensatory measures ==

The agreement would include financial accountability:

* the politician '''deposits a guarantee sum''' backing the respect of their commitments, in a logic comparable to an [[wikipedia:Escrow|escrow]] held by a [[wikipedia:Notary|notary]];
* the expected votes and involvements are '''written down in black and white''' in the contract;
* if the politician does not respect their obligations (to get involved, and to vote in a defined way), '''compensatory deductions''' would be applied to the guarantee;
* the criteria are '''defined by the citizens who joined the support committee''', and evolve with the committee itself.


== Domain examples ==

The concept applies to any policy domain. Two illustrative examples follow.


=== Transport ===

Needs-based commitments in transport could include: free [[wikipedia:Public transport|public transport]], a surtax on non-shared private transport, incentives against driving alone (refusing [[wikipedia:Carpool|carpooling]] or [[wikipedia:Hitchhiking|hitchhikers]] when sharing is possible), carpooling applications that effectively tax solo driving, and a principle of '''transport sobriety''': lower [[wikipedia:Speed limit|maximum speeds]] and real measures to pollute less and to help each other in solidarity.


=== Housing ===

Needs-based commitments in housing could include: [[wikipedia:Public housing|public-utility housing]], a strong and better applied [[wikipedia:Pre-emption right|pre-emption right]], and incentive measures such as loans allowing [[wikipedia:Housing cooperative|housing cooperatives]] to act upstream of building sales: direct offers to the seller, and early proof that they hold the equity needed to compete against private buyers. The goal: exiting [[wikipedia:Real estate bubble|real-estate speculation]].
