The rise of large-language models (LLMs) has been a pivotal moment in human history. But what are the implications of these technologies for liberal democracies? And how will they impact democratic deliberation in the future? This TEPSA Animated Explainer focuses on the ways in which technological developments have shaped political agendas and the challenges they pose to a functioning democratic system.

The video is based on the findings of an upcoming publication on LLMs and the deconstruction of the liberal order, written by Nikola Schmidt. This Animated Explainer has been created in collaboration of the Horizon-funded "Reclaiming Liberal Democracy in the Post-Factual Age" (RECLAIM) project, which investigates the impact of post-truth politics on liberal democracy and looks for ways to mitigate it.
