Can Artificial Intelligence change the future of politics?

During the presidential elections in Russia last year, a candidate named "Alice" ran for president. She ran her campaign using a slogan like "the president who knows you best" and she did receive a couple thousand votes. To be correct, "Alice" was not a she, but an artificial intelligence (AI) system. Alice's campaign page is still up. "Alice" is not the only AI system to run for public office.
