FIDE<p>🚫 We are leaving X.</p><p>It has been a long due decision. Over a year ago, as X’s degradation became clear, we opened this Mastodon account to transition our followers gradually. Despite our consistent posting, building an active, engaged community on Mastodon has proven challenging, and we continue to work towards a vibrant space for public dialogue.</p><p>X has become a hub for rising hate speech, misinformation, and toxic behavior, eroding its capacity to support constructive discourse and democratic values. These developments strike at the heart of what FIDE stands for, and we can no longer endorse a platform that disregards the principles of respectful, inclusive dialogue.</p><p>With this announcement, we call on others to support online spaces that uphold democratic values—platforms where respect, truth, and inclusivity prevail. Let’s build communities that prioritize the integrity of information and open, diverse engagement.</p><p><a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/DigitalDemocracy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DigitalDemocracy</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/DemocraticInnovation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DemocraticInnovation</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/DeliberativeDemocracy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DeliberativeDemocracy</span></a></p>

It traces the evolution from electronic to virtual and network democracy, underscoring how each stage has broadened democratic engagement through technology. Focusing on digital citizenship, the chapter examines how AI can improve online engagement while posing privacy risks and fostering identity stereotyping. Regarding political participation, it highlights AI's dual role in mobilising civic actions and spreading misinformation. Regarding representation, AI's involvement in electoral processes can enhance voter registration, e-voting, and the efficiency of result tabulation but raises concerns regarding privacy and public trust. Also, AI's predictive capabilities shift the dynamics of political competition, posing ethical questions about manipulation and the legitimacy of democracy. Finally, the chapter examines how integrating AI and digital technologies can facilitate democratic political advocacy and personalised communication. However, this also comes with higher risks of misinformation and targeted propaganda."</p><p><a href="https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=4901264" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cf</span><span class="invisible">m?abstract_id=4901264</span></a></p>
