Det Syntetiske Parti (English: The Synthetic Party) is the world's first political party driven by artificial intelligence[1][2] with the goal of making generative text-to-text models not merely populist, what they are by default, but democratic.[3] The party was founded in 2022 in Denmark.[4]

AI is already populist by default in a certain sense (...) But even if it's populist, it's not democratic just yet.[3]

Founder

A philosopher from Aarhus University and a conceptual artist Asker Bryld Staunæs is the party founder and continuous party secretary.[5]

Main goal

The political goals have been machine learned from texts by Danish fringe parties since 1970 and represent the 20 percent of Danes who do not vote in the election. It's a synthetic party, so many of the policies, such as universal basic income, can be contradictory to one another.
