DMK Uses AI for 2026 Poll Manifesto
The DMK party in Tamil Nadu is using a special AI tool to help make their plan for the 2026 elections.
This tool lets people share their ideas in different ways, like typing, talking, or uploading files.
The AI then groups these ideas into important topics and picks the best ones.
People from 25 countries, including those living abroad, can use this tool.
The party is also telling everyone about it through events in different places.
The tool keeps people's information safe by encrypting their names and phone numbers.
DMK is using an AI-powered portal to gather and analyze citizen suggestions for its 2026 election manifesto.
The portal allows users to submit suggestions via text, voice, or file uploads in Tamil.
AI groups suggestions into 20 key themes using semantic clustering and assigns scores to prioritize them.
The portal is accessible to people in 25 countries, including the Tamil diaspora, and ensures data security through encryption.
DMK's manifesto committee, led by Kanimozhi, is promoting the portal through road shows across 12 locations.
