Because you don't need AI when you've got NI.
I like Northern Ireland, despite its problems, but I've never considered it an alternative to AI. Interesting insight there.
Its pretty good at giving correct answers but god its slow and expensive. You gotta print and post like 2 million letters asking your question, wait for the concensus to be achived, wait for the comittee to conbein and compile the answer, then wait for the answer to come back.
They could at least streamline it a bit, maybe call instead of mailing the answer, and save a bit on the post by just having a dedicated radio signal that blasts the question to the entire population instead of having to send everyone a letter.
It's only natural.
