A social media platform that is actually good for democracy?

Technology is often seen as a threat to democracy, with the surge in AI capabilities the latest big concern.

This historic year of elections has put the complex relationship between technology and democracy on full display.

All eyes are currently on the upcoming elections in the U.S., with recent assassination attempts highlighting the deep divisions in the world's most powerful democracy.

Many have blamed social media for supercharging this polarization, with AI increasingly used to spread disinformation on these platforms.

But, instead of dividing, could "pro-democratic" social technologies help communities work through difficult issues like climate change?
