I see endless possibilities, but it’s questionable if any of them are realistic before we overcome capitalism.
But one idea I really like is AI helping with the implementation of sortition for democratic decision-making in government.
Recently, the concept got some attention due to climate protesters demanding it, which I think is nice. So while I don’t want to discuss the concept and where it should be applied, here’s what (future) AIs could do:
Enhanced Random Selection Process: AI can ensure a representative selection from the population for sortition by analyzing demographic data and employing stratified sampling algorithms.
Personalized Education and Communication: Once participants are selected, AI could offer personalized learning paths to prepare them for their role, and adapt communication to suit each participant’s unique circumstances.
Facilitating Communication and Mediation: AI can manage communication among the selected group by setting up secure environments for discussion, and serving as an impartial mediator to promote fairness and respectfulness during deliberations.
Information Provision, Fact-Checking, and Bias Detection: AI can provide relevant, unbiased information on complex topics, perform real-time fact-checking, and monitor discussions for potential biases.
Emotion and Sentiment Analysis: As discussions take place, AI could detect the emotional states and sentiments of participants, ensuring decisions are not overly influenced by emotional reactions.
Advanced Simulation and Scenario Exploration: AI could create sophisticated simulations to help participants understand potential outcomes of the policies they are considering.
Public Accountability and Feedback Collection: After decisions are made, AI can ensure transparency in decision-making by tracking and reporting the progress of the deliberations, and collecting public feedback on the decisions made.
I should probably add that this list was made with the help of GPT 😅 so a more direct answer to your question might be: AI can help humans lay out their ideas and foster discussions.
That’s the scariest thing I’ve read in a long time. I’ve gotten so many completely made up “facts” from AI that I wouldn’t want to hand it the keys to my car, much less my freedom. It even cites it’s sources, which don’t exist if you actually check them. The fact that the creators can’t even explain why this is happening makes it even more scary. I’m not scared of AI. I’m just scared of people trusting it. It’s about as trustworthy as a politician, but arguably a lot smarter.
Capitalism isn’t the problem here, it’s unregulated capitalism that doesn’t work.
Also, you can dislike it but so far, capitalism tampered with socialism, is the best system we have so far. The best Countries in terms of human happines and opportunities (think the Scandinavian states especially and most of central europe generally) are capitalist democracies. We however realised, unlike the US, that you can’t just let corporation do anything they wan and that the state has an obligation to provide services and help to it’s people.
This anti-capitalist sentiment os so common and not really founded in reality that it feels like a mere buzz word at this point.

Not generally disagreeing with you, but I doubt the following
