Drafting laws with artificial intelligence without transparency is a political contradiction. While citizens demand accountability for military spending and public budgets, those who legislate use opaque tools to make key decisions. The paradox is clear: those who regulate technology do not apply their own rules to themselves.
Technical audits to guarantee human laws 🤖
The technical solution involves implementing a mandatory declaration system for AI use in all legal drafting. Independent audits are required to verify the origin of the text through language pattern analysis, editing metadata, and digital signatures. A public registry with a human verification seal would allow tracking each draft, ensuring that the content does not come from unsupervised language models.
AI that writes laws and a congress that doesn't read them 😅
Now it turns out that politicians have a virtual assistant for drafting regulations, but they still haven't figured out how to make the air conditioning in the chamber work. Perhaps the next law on transparency will be written by ChatGPT, and the audit will be done by an algorithm. At least then we would have the certainty that no one in congress read the text before voting on it.
