Globalisation and the advent of AI pose new challenges to an already struggling democracy. The crisis of representation is intertwined with the growing influence of digital platforms in consensus building and the phenomenon of so called disintermediation. AAIs, which effectively undermine the traditional tripartite division of power, are now called upon to oversee the implementation of AI in key areas of social and economic life. The European AI Act provides an important regulatory framework, but its implementation at national level raises questions about the choice of supervisory authority and the effectiveness of its powers of intervention.
