In a world of meaning crisis, digital overstimulation, and consistent alienation, AI’s potential for information summarization is profound. Bills.ai is an AI-powered web application designed to inform Canadian citizens, dealienate them from their government, and empower democratic participation through accessible legislative understanding.
Many Canadians feel disconnected from the legislative process due to complex legal language and fragmented government communication. This alienation makes it difficult for people to stay informed or engage meaningfully with the policies that shape their lives.
Bills.ai uses GPT-powered summarization to simplify dense legislative bills into clear, plain-English descriptions. Citizens can view a list of current bills, read AI-generated summaries, and track each bill's progress through Parliament.
