One of the things I had been hoping to examine is how statements were elevated when those had bridging power. Together with its power of clustering the groups, I hope to see how major statements or other statements got closer and closer, leaving polarized, less popular ones aside

💬 How do words like woke, misinformation, & nationalism vary across political divides?
Try the Bridging Dictionary by @CCCatMIT to see how language reflects polarization & suggests ways to bridge gaps. 🌉

Soo cool!! Also allows for lots of interesting LLM tools to support conversations (eg have a separate interface where people see real-time summaries or AI suggested bridging statements)

like, the algo behind CN (@UsePolis) gets used for far more impactful things than social media checking, such as Taiwanese govt public petitions. it's a very robust system!
a screenshot of _unaccepted_ nonsense isn't proof of a problem, it's the system working as intended.

This is really neat: Community Notes work because they estimate users' political preferences and upweight notes that are liked by users of all stripes.
I wonder if other parts of our democracy could be improved with mechanisms like this.

What does it mean for AI development to be more democratic? To find out, we partnered with @collect_intel to use @usepolis to curate an AI constitution based on the opinions of ~1000 Americans. Then we trained a model against it using Constitutional AI.

Four hands hold pens and write on the scroll to convey the collective process of designing a constitution from public opinion.
