A unique online game of political skill is engaging players and users not just from across America but from all over the world -- who are learning about the American political system, including the Electoral College, especially as the 2024 presidential election season heats up. Mark J. Penn, chair and CEO of Stagwell Inc., is the creator of a virtual political game of strategy called TwoSeventy. "This is more or less the only serious political online game right now," Penn told Fox News Digital in an interview. "There are online games in which you can catch sharks, kill Mafiosi, shoot people -- but it's pretty rare for you to be able to play a sophisticated political game where you take on the characters in the campaigns and aim to become president," he said.

ChatGPT makes an irresistible first impression. It's got a devastating sense of humour, a stunning capacity for dead-on mimicry, and it can rhyme like nobody's business. Then there is its overwhelming reasonableness. When ChatGPT fails the Turing test, it's usually because it refuses to offer its own opinion on just about anything. When was the last time real people on the internet declined to tell you what they really think?

Artificial intelligence has chosen a winner for the 2020 presidential election -- but there's a catch. Hernan Makse is a statistical physicist at City University of New York who runs the Complex Networks and Data Science Lab at the Levich Institute in Manhattan. His lab uses AI to predict the outcomes of international elections using social media traffic, focusing mainly on Twitter, a platform with over 48 million monthly active users in the US. "We usually start one year from the election, and then we use that data to train the machine and predict the outcome of the election at the national level," he said in a recent interview with The Independent, noting how AI can now also be used to predict local and state election outcomes after data is organized by geolocation. "Predicting elections is, of course, quite complicated."

Democratic presidential candidate Andrew Yang appeared on "Fox and Friends" Friday morning to defend his campaign's key proposal of giving $12,000 to each American adult every year and criticized Democrats for their newfound support for the abolition of the Electoral College. Yang, former ambassador of global entrepreneurship in the Obama administration and a long-shot candidate for the party's nomination, was grilled by the show hosts and the audience about his universal basic income program, dubbed "Freedom Dividend," and his other views. "You have to look up who are going to be the biggest winners from artificial intelligence and self-driving cars and trucks and new technologies. The American people are gonna see very little of the gains in the innovation," said Yang. "The American people are gonna see very little of the gains in the innovation." He added that due to an increasing automation, "most of us" won't work at Amazon or other companies, leaving the rest of the people at a disadvantage because their source of income will disappear.

In the aftermath of a contentious presidential campaign, there are signs that many Americans have lost faith in democracy, with allegations of election fraud, suggestions of Russian involvement, and complaints about the electoral college. But the problem runs still deeper: Like most other countries, individual states in the US employ the antiquated plurality voting system, in which each voter casts a vote for a single candidate, and the person who amasses the largest number of votes is declared the winner. If there is one thing that voting experts unanimously agree on, it is that plurality voting is a bad idea, or at least a badly outdated one.

He is co-founder of the not-for-profit websites RoboVote.org In fact, for centuries economists, mathematicians, political scientists, and more recently computer scientists have designed and studied better approaches to voting.
