@tbalogh.bsky.social @louiseluxton.bsky.social and I present work @psaepop.bsky.social on citizens' use and perceptions of AI chatbots and the @parliview.bsky.social. DE, DK and UK citizens use AI chatbots such as Chat and Claude to learn about politics, but also hold major reservations. #epop2026

Are you joining us at our @parliview.bsky.social launch event on 1 October?

Together with @unistrathclyde.bsky.social and @ucddublin.bsky.social, we took on this challenge. The result? @parliview.bsky.social: a joint AI‑powered transparency platform to help citizens better understand the work of the European Parliament.
