You forgot about 3. Brave new world.

Mass of people that will not revolt and storm the castles because they will have computer games, recreational drugs and not so bad life.

That will not care about voting so 1. would not happen and 2. would not end up in French style revolution as they wouldn’t mind state control.

Brave New World is not a historical example, it is a fictional one.

And if AI is what the developers hope it to be, the fictional reference points would expand to anything from Manna to The Culture to I Have No Mouth.
