To assume that a robot/computer can master govern a society but "can't explain themselves" isn't rational. Of course the robots will be able to explain themselves.
They may very well come to the rationalization based on history and human motivation that free market capitalist systems are the best way to govern.
But they are also likely to excel at planning. Not central planning of the entire economy but rather infrastructure. Things like large infrastructure, highways bridges, water reservoirs, energy, parks will likely be better maintained and planned for. As of opposed to politicians funding pork projects, highways to nowhere, and paying off their bundlers.
The robots will learn humor and laugh when they consider climate change.
If they avoid political prosecutions but put criminals in jail on a non-partisan manner, then great.
I for one welcome our new artificially intelligent pleasure bot overlords.
Yes! Funnybot lives!
This could have been poor writing—it's the humans who won't be able to explain themselves, because all their natural drives will have been constrained, pruned, or lopped since birth.
I've long had some thoughts about this. I'm old enough to have seen the rise of Second Wave Feminism in the 60s, which depended on legalization of The Pill, cohabitation, abortion for the married and the unmarried in order to bring about the feminists' goal of "equality"—with who were, in hindsight, the most careless and promiscuous of males. Within a decade of those Supreme Court decisions in the 60s and 70s that effectively swept away the underpinnings for traditonal marriage, women (and even men) who wanted to remain chaste until marriage, or to marry the person with whom they caused a pregnancy, and who understood marriage to automatically include becoming parents, suddenly had to explain themselves to persons whom they dated, or their friends or even their families—never having previously had to articulate a defense for what had always been a rock solid cultural standard.
The reverse was often also true for people who fell in love with someone who wanted a sexual relationship without aiming for marriage or even exclusivity; or if married, wanted to say no to children regardless of their partner's assumptions that parenthood was a fundamental expectation in nmarriage.
If the left continues having its way these days, eventually people who are comfortable having been born into one or the other of the two sexes will be persecuted in the way that the left threatens to defenestrate the unvaxxed.
