A variant of Alexandros' AI: attach a brain-scanning device to every person, which frequently uploads copies to the AI's Manager. The AI submits possible actions to the Manager, which checks for approval from the most recently available copy of each person who is relevant-to-the-action.
At startup, and periodically, the definition of being-relevant-to-an-action is determined by querying humanity with possible definitions, and selecting the best approved. If there is no approval-rating above a certain ratio, the AI shuts down.
Subject to artificial tyranny of the majority:
The AI maintains all sorts of bad practices which are commonly considered to be innocuous. Like slavery used to be.
Or it shuts down because people can't agree on anything.
