@ThePatientSide 's Amy Gleason shared the story of a patient whose access to her own health data helped keep her out of the ER and reduce her anxiety. What stood out wasn’t just the data itself, but what it made possible: more clarity, confidence, and control in moments that otherwise feel overwhelming.

We tuned into @GoogleForHealth 's annual event, #TheCheckUp, last week and kept coming back to one question: what other ways could technology give people more agency over their healthcare?

If you have ever read a 📰 frontline account from the civil war in Myanmar, the Women Life Freedom protests in Iran, or Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, you may have only seen it because of Outline. Since 2018, Jigsaw’s Outline technology has been a vital lifeline, empowering over 30 million people to access the open internet and share information freely each month.

Here are the age-old constraints to large conversations that we focused on addressing: 💡How do we ensure everyone has a turn to speak? 💡How do we ensure people feel comfortable opening up? 💡How do we surface shared understanding? 🎧 Listen in to Jigsaw CEO @yasmind and @semafor 's @ReedAlbergotti discuss how AI may offer a new way to engage both at scale and in depth.

That was the design challenge the Napolitan Institute brought to Jigsaw in the run up to America's 250th Anniversary: ⚡Can we convene a virtual focus group that is representative of Americans and enable them to have a back-and-forth to see what they think?⚡

Instead of reducing 10,000 quotes and 1.6 million words into a TL;DR, we built a process that preserves the whole conversation. You can explore it all today (and see how how your own opinions compare to those who participated) 👉 freedom.wethepeople-250.org.

One clear learning is that people crave the opportunity to speak and feel heard. A typical participant spent over an hour sharing their views and engaging with those of others. 89% of participants felt that a process like this could help more American voices be heard.

For years, public opinion research has required trade-offs: depth or breadth; stories or statistics. ⚖️ Today, we’re sharing how Jigsaw and the Napolitan Institute bridged those gaps during our We the People pilot. 🇺🇸

Earlier this week, I was honored to participate in the showcase for Google @Jigsaw's "We the People" AI project in Bowling Green. It is incredible to see local innovation like "What Could BG Be" spark a new national form of civic dialogue. Looking forward to seeing this project take shape!

💬 What distinguishes a meaningful conversation from one that feels shallow? As we wrap up the pilot for We The People, we’re hearing that ➡️ 94% of participants said the personalized, AI-generated follow-up questions helped them examine their ideas in greater depth. ⬅️ That’s one mark of a truly meaningful conversation versus a surface-level one. We’ll share a full update on the pilot soon! For now, take a look at this example of how the AI-generated follow up looks to participants:

Designing spaces where people feel heard could change how we connect, disagree, and understand each other. Jigsaw CEO @yasmind reveals on the SHIFT Podcast with @StrongReporter that during early testing for We The People, 91% of participants in a 200-person conversation told us they felt represented by the process. This was our 💫 North Star and it gives us a lot of hope for how conversations can be designed with AI to help us find where we agree and disagree with each other.
