early findings with experimental participants
We're using Sway to study how AI can help people have better discussions across deep political and moral divides.
In an early pilot study, 120 participants spent 30 minutes on Sway discussing a polarizing topic such as the 2020 election, January 6, Israel-Palestine, or U.S. abortion policy.
We are planning a large randomized controlled trial where we will compare results from discussions like these with unmediated discussions. We are also running a large field study involving students in 2025 at over 30 colleges and universities.
