      And who will create the automaton? How do we select people to maintain the automaton that will play the role of government?

      That automatic government has to be created by a group of people. How do you plant to select them? The government automaton would also need to be maintained, as it is impossible for the authors of the machine to predict what humanity is going to look like 500 years from now. How do you select those?

      The logic of “code is impartial, therefore code should be law” is flawed because code as to be written by someone, and that someone is not impartial.
