Abstract

ABSTRACT


AI integration with technologies that have the potential to transform democratic electoral processes is receiving more and more attention. The purpose of this article is to discuss the various dimensions of the applicability of AI during elections and their wider ramifications. The article assesses how AI impacts voter registration, predictive analytics, election monitoring, accessibility, and voter participation by referring to secondary literature. One of the aspects that is stressed by this text, in addition to others, includes the importance of accountability, equity, and transparency in decision-making through algorithms, which indeed negates legal as well as moral reservations to some extent concerning AI's use in elections. On this note, this article contributes towards understanding how democracy is linked with technology, taking a critical lens on artificial intelligence as an electoral process actor. This article critically assesses the introduction of AI in systems and its various implications, on governance and norms.
