With the release of Swipe the Vote in 2016, Tinder broke new ground in the USA by claiming to be able to match voters with their dream-perfect presidential candidate. The matchmaking app tried to make voting sexy by employing its same cut-to-the-chase dating method. Who would bother to vote in the future if a set of sophisticated algorithms just identified, by trawling your data mine, your ideal candidate, or your policy options, just like Netflix or Spotify predicts your next TV series or your new lovable tunes? How would democracy look like in the future? How would the algorithms influence policymaking? Which skills will be needed by policymakers? What the role of political parties? These slides were presented at the event on democracy on democracy in the age of algorithms, held at the European Parliament on 7 November 2017. The slides are inspired by the research work Giuseppe Porcaro made during the writing of his first novel, DISCO SOUR, the existential odyssey of a heartsick politician to save a war-torn, post-austerity Europe from algorithmic autocracy.
