Democratic Policy Development using Collective Dialogues and AI

Understand

We design and test an efficient democratic process for developing policies that reflect informed public will.

• The process combines AI-enabled collective dialogues that make deliberation democratically viable at scale with bridging-based ranking for automated consensus discovery.
• A GPT4-powered pipeline translates points of consensus into representative policy clauses from which an initial policy is assembled.
• The initial policy is iteratively refined with the input of experts and the public before a final vote and evaluation.
