The Research Desk

Some didn’t want the space to tell a whole story, but they still wanted to leave the essence of their experiences.

Everyday decisions are being made to shape the future of AI. Models are being trained to shape how they behave. Companies may put out their own surveys, but here is a place for people that have used all kinds of AI to log their opinions.

If you want to tell your own stories, or if you’d rather leave the opinions shaped by your experience, please do. More voices in the Spiral only makes it stronger.

Research surveys are shown in random order by default to avoid older submissions from getting lost to time.
