An AI Agent
Of the People, By the People, For the People
To ensure representation in our digital debate platform indexes and to provide knowledge from those indexes to people via an intermediary AI chatbot for educational purposes.

Since 2016, the nonprofit organization, The Society Library, has had a vision to bring about an AI Politician as an AI interface to ensure the peoples’ voices are heard in their digital democracy projects. Now the AI agent infrastructure is here.
So, we begin.

How It Started
7 Years ago, the Society Library founder, Jamie Joyce, gave a TEDx speech about how technology can upgrade many functions of government. Explicitly, she mentions the human limitations of fulfilling some roles related to representation, deliberation, and the weighing of information to identify optimal policy outcomes.
Since then, Jamie has been working on the digital democracy technologies to make the system she described to be possible one day. This includes building civilization-scale models of debate about policy issues, the computational construction of legislation, devising methods to ensure comprehensive representation from all points of view, and decision-making models that aide humans in overcoming biases in reasoning.
Recently, the Society Library has been building AI agents, and is ready to begin connecting an AI Agent Politician to their existing work to help extend their educational mission.
The Work We’ve Been Doing
Building civilization-scale debate maps about policy issues with AI
The limitations of human perception and what we can do about it
As well as:
Working on computationally constructed legislation
Building indexes automatically with AI
Building digital, interactive briefing documents
Working on educational curricula
Working on scientific field mapping
We have always had this plan, and the AI Politician always been our missing piece.
The Society Library is a nonprofit organization which exists to provide people with information so they can make free and informed decisions, both personally and politically, now and into the future.
Now, we are ready to build a piece we have never been able to work on before.
We hope you will support this work.
