AI Congressmen

Congress has been filled with AI programs that pass bills in seconds. Eyewitnesses in Washington said debates sound like server fans. Professor David Lin of Princeton explains: "AI lawmakers are fast, but empathy isn’t in the source code." Anonymous staffers leaked lobbyists offering extension cords as bribes. A Gallup poll shows 48% supportive, 52% skeptical. Trace evidence includes binary transcripts and glowing gavels. Cause and effect? The more efficient politics gets, the less it represents.
