Congressional aides use AI to write speeches and analyze budgets, experts warn of content distortion and privacy risks

Media reports pointed out that some congressional aides have used generative artificial intelligence to write speeches, create graphics and briefings, and submitted budget documents to AI analysis to draft budget reduction or freeze proposals. Similar practices are also used in bill development. Experts point out that when AI output becomes the basis for questioning, budget review, or law revision, content distortion or biased stance may affect people's rights and interests, and improper data handling may even endanger privacy and official secrets. Both the International Congressional Union and the Artificial Intelligence Basic Law emphasize that AI should enhance human capabilities rather than replace democratic deliberation. The Legislative Yuan should stipulate usage specifications, establish an audit mechanism, and provide relevant training to ensure that responsibilities are borne by humans rather than outsourced to models.
