Artificial intelligence is significantly impacting political discourse, with one in ten words spoken in British parliamentary debates now drafted by AI, a share that has rapidly increased since 2024.

This trend is global, with Australian and Canadian MPs showing higher AI usage rates than their British counterparts.
