Michael RebeloHOST
But why can't we track them? Have you ever thought of that? There must be a solution to that.
Michael RebeloHOST
I don't have that solution, but Citizen Portal does, and so does Thomas Dykes.
Michael RebeloHOST
Thomas, how are you, my friend? Great to have you on the show.
Michael RebeloHOST
It's
Michael RebeloHOST
Absolutely.
Michael RebeloHOST
We had a brief discussion of what your company does and what you do as well.
Michael RebeloHOST
So, Thomas, first of all, who are you, who is Thomas, and what is Citizen Portal?
Thomas DykesGUEST
Well, me personally, I'm the fire starter.
Eric WilsonHOST
I'm your host, Eric Wilson.
Eric WilsonHOST
My guest today is Paul Allen, the founder of Ancestry.com and now the founder and CEO of Soar and Citizen Portal.
Eric WilsonHOST
Paul built one of the first companies to take an enormous unread archive and make it personal for hundreds of millions of people.
Eric WilsonHOST
Now he's applying AI to a different archive, the meetings, ordinances, and records of local government that basically no one reads.
Eric WilsonHOST
Could you make the optimist case for me? What can an ordinary citizen do with AI today that really wasn't possible five years ago?
Paul AllenGUEST
Yeah, I'd love to, Eric, and thank you for having me on the show.
Paul AllenGUEST
About two or three years ago when I started publicly speaking about Citizen Portal AI, and I was fortunate to be discovered by Glenn Beck.
Paul AllenGUEST
He invited me to his podcast, then he invited me to Dallas, and he actually said that Citizen Portal will shift the balance of power between the electeds and the... and the electorate, the citizens.
