Artificial Intelligence

Here is what I am interested in right now- constructing many AI's with certain tendencies hard wired (so to speak) so as to represent a demographic sampling of voters. Then engaging the AI's with campaign like materials and current events in order to provide context. Ultimately holding a mock election among the AI's as a way to predict election outcomes. Or, from a campaign perspective, use the AI responses to prospective ads as a way to determine their impact. I would imagine that such a project would cost quite a bit more than running focus groups, but it still sounds interesting to me.

So, if anyone knows of someone doing this type of work (be it political or consumer-focused), please drop me a line or post a comment.
