How AI Can Help Democracy Work Better
The AI Daily Brief: Artificial Intelligence News and Analysis
Lower Information Costs Could Raise Civic Engagement
Nathaniel Whittemore argues many citizens may care more than assumed, but high information costs suppress participation that AI agents could unlock.
Stanford professor Andy Hall argues that instead of fixating on AI dystopia, we should be racing to build AI tools that make citizens smarter, represent them more faithfully, and force institutions to be more accountable. NLW reads key excerpts from Hall's essay and makes the case that agents built for governance, not just business, could reshape the relationship between people and power.
