According to Bloomberg, Anwar would not be the first politician to use AI.
South Korean President Lee Jae Myung used an AI avatar to extensively represent him during his election campaign in 2022, allowing it to answer voters’ questions and deliver campaign messages.
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has used AI to address audiences in multiple Indian languages.
Wong said his product is able to go further – it can engage in negotiations and sign and verify items on individuals’ behalf, for instance.
These tasks are accomplished “within the boundaries that you set”, and the agents’ actions are “verifiable, recorded in immutable blockchain and legally recognised”, he said.
“It is your AI agent with your official identity and credentials,” he added.
While other agentic AI tools can execute coding tasks or answer emails on a user’s behalf, they do not have the authority, knowledge or capacity to fully represent the individual, Wong explained.
REDUCING HALLUCINATION
Wong acknowledged the risks of “unrestricted agentic AI” but said the PKM developed by his company orchestrates all responses and agentic actions.
“The PKM serves as a fact-checking and verifier tool, ensuring that all responses are consistent and aligns with the user’s preferences,” he said.
“So the better the user trains their PKM, the better the PKM understands the user’s intentions and information, providing a more accurate response representative of the user and reducing the rates of hallucinations.”
The PKM also manages a digital wallet bearing the user’s digital identity, ensuring that only the PKM is authorised to represent the user, Wong said.
“There is no room for rogue actions as every step is guarded with strong cryptographic verification and locked in with immutable blockchain,” he said.
As for data security, Wong said users’ personal data are not accessible by “anyone else”.
“Your personal data is stored either as weights in the PKM or in an encrypted harness depending on whether the knowledge is static or dynamic,” he said.
