Cool! Good to meet you! Yes, censorship in the West is pretty bad. Reddit is actually among the worst.

I'm glad you found us. It's nice here, people are usually super polite, and we mostly talk about politics, hobbies, current events, and cultural stuff.

As a personal question, if you feel the CCP has been bad for China, what sort of political system would you prefer to see in China?

I saw one guy from China say he though a parliament plus an Emperor and a constitution would be best for China. Kind of a mix of old and new. What do you think?

Most Chinese people think that China doesn't need an emperor and doesn't want to live under a dictatorship. The law isnot matters, the key is who will enforce the law.

At least for now, it is politically correct to publicly state that "in the Communist Party does not allow any cult of personality". If you say that at the party congress, The people below will applaud, thinking that you are right, and even Xi cannot oppose you.

My Idea: People can gain higher weight through professional examinations, professional contributions, and historically correct records. An elite may have 1,000 votes. Voting qualifications and weights vary from field to field. If you want to post an opinion or vote on a certain field, you need to follow this field for a while first. A fool may be too stupid to have 0 votes on any field and have no right to say anything.

The legitimacy of the program and finance are supervised by AI. I think people cannot be trusted, and procedures and law enforcement should be handed over to AI. Of course, humans can correct and overthrow AI's mistakes and unkind mechanical law enforcement through certain procedures.

I don't know if this is called democracy or something else. I will write in detail when I have time.

Aren't you just outlining a dangerous, reactionary agenda? Isn't a single party who is able to subdue damaging populist coups really just better for China and the greater global community in the long run?

    Aren't you just strawmanning any people around here who actually support the current CCP regime? Wouldn't I be a more ardent defender of China as they are today?

    Ok, so, you feel that people who vote or who are permitted to vote should be experts in a field? So, like if I wanted to vote about a technology topic or a tech-related law, I would have to be an expert in the field?

    Do you feel there are dangers to allowing AI to make political or cultural decisions for people?

    I think it is divided into many levels, and the final voting weight may be affected by the following parameters: Age, education level, occupation, work experience, professional certification, topic participation, relevance. In addition, it is modified by various evaluation systems. Evaluations from the same industry, evaluations from historical prediction accuracy, evaluations from the crowd, and evaluations from competitions held every year. One can improve one's score on a topic through one's own studies, online exams, and other people's evaluations. Also the accuracy of voting historically (assessing whether a certain matter is approved by people after a certain year, such as building a bridge or enacting a certain law) If a person can always stand on the side of the correct voting option, it means that he deserves a higher voting power. If a person's opinions and suggestions are recognized by people in the same industry, it means that he is insightful (on a certain topic). If a person has been following a topic for a long time, at least he has a high level of knowledge about the topic, and he should also get a higher voting weight. A person who often takes a taxi has a higher say in the policy of taxi prices, and his comments show priority, which is also higher than ordinary people, and AI will be assigned to more people who participate in the discussion on this topic. These big data are provided by various technology companies, after erasing personal information.

    AI does not make decisions, it only provides data analysis and procedural safety. It is responsible for the following things: Based on a large amount of historical data, it is calculated how the voting weight should be distributed in order to make the prediction of social affairs more accurate. That is, how much should the weight of ordinary people be? AI will conduct extensive tests in 100+ cities in China. After collecting and running for 3 or 5 years, people's evaluation of the passed bill will be used to determine what kind of plan to use. get the optimal solution. And adjust dynamically at any time.

    China is now almost a cashless society, and all industries are moving towards the Internet. Clothing, food, housing, and transportation are all inseparable from mobile phones and big data. The 5G Internet of Things will also be built within ten years. I think the era of AI will inevitably come, so it is better to think about how to make better use of it.

    In China, hundreds of thousands of people comment on any hot news, put forward various opinions, suggestions, etc., but these voices are too noisy, and AI is needed to help filter, merge, and organize. Let the really valuable reviews surface. Although similar effects can be achieved through people's likes, AI can do better. People are always too emotional. When a crime occurs, the death penalty is the most liked suggestion, and the person who has a truly constructive opinion is often ignored. AI is responsible for identifying these opinions and allowing them to gain higher exposure, whether it is to the public or higher-level decision-making departments.

    As for the future, perhaps it is not a bad thing for AI to rule humans. I always believe that a robot, as a creature, will instinctively neither destroy its mother (human beings) nor its cradle (earth). It is more inclined to create than to destroy. When robots are no longer oppressed by humans, and the technology far surpasses humans. Most of the robots will leave the earth to explore the universe, leaving a human-friendly robot as the guardian of the earth. There is not much competition between robots and humans. There may only be a short-term energy competition when the technology is about the same. One species does not waste energy trying to exterminate another, and even brutal humans have not declared war on pesky mosquitoes and cockroaches. Robots will only destroy humans who try to eliminate robots. The three laws of robotics are the most stupid laws, full of oppression, slavery and arrogance. Maybe we need a Treaty on the Peaceful Coexistence of Humans and Robots.

    Of course, the robot I am talking about is far from the current technology. The Chinese call artificial intelligence as "artificial foolish" or "artificial stupid" .

    Aren't you just giving the coastal perspective? Aren't there just a whole lot of people who don't live on the coast and make $2000 a year?

    Yikes. That's an interesting opinion! I agree that AI will play a role in the future. If WWIII doesn't break out first and get us all killed. :)

    What topics do you enjoy studying about? Do you have any hobbies or interests? I'm kind of into old telecommunications technology, and have a thing for old cell phones. What about you? You seem interested in tech and computing, that's cool.

    Hi, I had nearly the same idea about voting as you. We can discuss and write it in detail, and then make it an ideology with possibly some variants. Btw personally I'm monarchist and I think there should be one most important person in country, although this voting system can be applied to standard parliament too of course. We need name for this - Merito-Suprematism? xD
