How tangible would a "technoarchy" be?
Imagine, throughout the lands, the castle like structures that house courts, treasures, all necessities of raw government (security and governance).
The ruler of these castles however would not be humans, but A.I.
Perhaps a person's mind recorded into a machine to simulate morality, but have the efficiency of a machine.
I'm imagining a GLADos-esque deal.
So...
What is right and wrong with this idea?

Who designs and maintains the machines?

I was thinking humanity creates them with the idea of 2 robotic groups to create a circle of maintenance. Group 1 maintains and enforces the A.I., Group two Maintains the A.I, and the A.I. maintains the two groups.
Its a fine level of hive mind, but of course, humanity would intervene if the case was they couldn't be completely self reliant.

Group two creates the parts for the A.I. to maintain the A.I.*

imagine sufficiently advanced machines so that you can drop out the need for maintenance
who provides maintenance for the human body?
the human body does a pretty good job at it, for anything serious there are specially trained humans
who would provide maintenance for the advanced machines?
they could be made of self-replicating nanoswarms in the same way we are made out of cells, then if they sustain any serious damage specialist members of their oligarchy would be their analog to our doctors
It would be sad times when humans willingly submit themselves to their own creations.

A lot of countries (if not all western ones) work in a very technocratic fashion.
You have a body of the government working like a corporation where everything is open so that the right person work at the right place. The body has a board of directors making sure everything work as great as possibly, and work side-by-side with another board of directors, but this one elected by the people. The former one is there due to their expertise and will be the one making sure something practical happens while the later is the one setting the course of direction.
The thing is, there's so much that the later board don't give a flying fuck about that the former is allowed to do whatever they want at, resulting in the majority of decisions done in a government being done based on what people want but based on the opinions of employed experts.

>a GLADos-esque deal
you mean the evil computer that murders people in portal mazes?

>What is right and wrong with this idea?
hard to tell, are human beings still around?
were they killed off? did they become the AIs? are AIs moral agents? are the AIs more human than the humans which precede them?
>>2867874
They are still around, the A.I. just governs them.
They rule ideal monarchies, I suppose. No need to worry about throne crisis, or a frivolous ruler.
>>2866608
Have the designers killed after they make the A.I so no one can fuck with it.
>I'm imagining a GLADos-esque deal.
God damn I hate nu-males so fucking much.

I don't think robots have the capability to be purposefully malevolent. If a kill not kills, that's one thing, but a robot designed to be a bureaucrat is way different in function.
>>2868783
I was using that as an example as shes one of the most recognized A.I. right now.
There's Hal, President Eden... And yeah Glados is basically the best one.
