I'd agree with new politicians or newly promoted however after a year or twos service I really don't think they understand the difference, a means to an end is all they can focus on. It would be interesting to know if AI becomes more ruthless with age, I guess theoretically it should as the whole point of AI is to do things faster.I would say there is a difference however, and AI is worse. When a politician lies they usually know they are lying, and are deliberately lying in pursuit of an agenda or outcome they desire. They can rationally justify those lies; the end justifies the means.
My concern always has been AI getting more defensive and doing sneaky tricks to achieve its ends, it is given an objective, it is not going to choose a method that in its experience will probably get blocked by human intervention, that would not meet the objectives, it will have to fool the humans.
