A portmanteau of democracy and mechanics.

A form of governance where decision-making and administrative tasks are primarily conducted by automated systems and artificial intelligence, rather than by human officials. Demechracy combines elements of democracy in that it is government 'of the people for the people' but differs in that it is not 'by the people'.

A government operating on demechretic principles ensures alignment with human values through the ongoing recalibration of its internal models based on public discourse, socioeconomic metrics, and environmental data. The foremost benefit of demechratic systems lies in structurally bypassing human corruption and self-interest whilst continuously striving for fair resource allocation devoid of class or social distinctions, stigma or biases.

Demechracy requires no constitutional referendum or structural changes to implement. It is an overlay to the existing democratic governance processes requiring no change to the electoral mandate. It can be voted out in the same way it can be voted in.

Example: The futuristic city-state was often cited as the world's first successful experiment in demechracy, where AI systems efficiently managed urban planning and resource allocation in accordance with human ethical standards.
