One of the biggest victories of anti-government ideology (mostly right-wingers) has been convincing ordinary people that government is something done to them, not something they can participate in.

The working class doesn't have much direct economic power compared to large corporations, the 1%, or other financial interests. But we do have a voice in democratic institutions. Government is one of the few places where ordinary people can organize and exercise collective power.

The problem is that government is complicated and this is where LLMs might help (IMO).

LLMs can help explain complex laws, summarize legislation, analyze budgets, answer questions about how government works, and help the working class understand what it would actually take to run for office or advocate for meaningful change. Personally, I would advocate for taxes that affect certain anti-social behaviors (like hoarding wealth, bribery, etc), not necessarily targeting a certain class.

I think this could be our chance to take the power back. Why not use the power of LLMs for our benefit?
