I think, overarchingly, we need to counter, to pre-bunk this narrative of democracy never delivers and only leads to chaos. Because if we succumb to that narrative, then there is very little we can do to shape the cyber norms we just talked about. At least we have to maintain our ground that says across the board for emergencies like the pandemic, infodemic, you name it and AI, democracy not only delivers, but points to better longer term solutions. This is the narrative we have to hold no matter what. As for concrete measurements, as I mentioned in the beginning, I always measure diversity and how much people hate each other across diversity. If we both foster more diversity and also people hate each other less after each emergency, election counts as one, then we know that democracy is well on its way to deliver.
