I could see an AI being up to the task. At least with such an artificial system, you can hard-code guardrails and a constitution that a parliament can agree upon.
Of course, I wouldn't want current LLM-based AI anywhere near the reigns of power. Such a system would need to have proven itself secure and incorruptible over decades before we put it in power.
I'm still rooting for benevolent aliens stepping in, telling humanity it's not capable of self care, and forcing us to clean up the planet so we can live on it as a wildlife preserve.
But how are the aliens governed?
In my fantasy, they're Star Trek style space communists as they're more than intelligent enough to make rational decisions.
There are no such things as AIs, but other than that, sure!
You can bake in biases that you don't even know are biases, which hands power to a certain group, and then that group refuses to fix the "AI" because doing so would reduce their power.
I don't think anybody who works with computers would suggest that a computer be put in charge. It seems mostly to be the idea from people who only look at computers from afar and see them as these logical, unbiased oracles, which they're not.
