Easier to build an AI.
Of all the areas Silicon Valley has disrupted, it's profoundly frustrating that political lobbying isn't one of them. I'm not aware of any startups even attempting it.
How exactly would they disrupt it?
Make it available to the public. Have a service where people can come together to decide what to lobby for.
If only there was some way every member of the public could have a say in political decisions. Hopefully one of those clever startups figures it out.

Someone posted this earlier from Schneier on Security but it didn't get much traction:

"AI Could Write Our Laws"
I didn't read it fully (yet) but early on he (I believe) coins the term "microlegislation".

Long time. Wed need a system that reliably understands rules. We don't even have a roadmap for developing that kind of AI. BSing will take you surprisingly far in life -- as demonstrated by many humans before AI -- but it can't do everything.
I would love to ingest my tax records into a secure GPT like system running locally that understands every tax code and scenario to maximize my return.
How long before this is possible? I love that megacorps can’t pay off OpenAI or try to acquire them to stop their tech from killing off their SaaS business models.
The fact that GPT-4 is passing bar exams makes me hopeful that this evens the playing field for lay people without the resources of the wealthy across all fields, better guidance and starting points to navigate legal, financial, medical issues, etc. What a time to be alive, truly!
