It’s possible, but I’ve followed some public comment processes for regulatory stuff before and large volumes of comments make it take way longer, because there is manual work involved. If a politician wants to still have actual people manually consider the contents of their inbox (which they absolutely should), using AI instead of a form letter will make that much harder for them to do. AI talking to AI to determine what the public thinks and wants is probably going to lose a lot in translation, and if it’s using service-based AI will give the companies running it another rather direct way to influence political outcomes.
Given all that, I’m not sure what the advantage is to balance against it either. As opposed to sending a copy of the form letter, where you can assume they will at least count how many people have done that, what’s even the benefit of having a LLM rewrite it first?
