The Role of AI Policy and Governance Working Group
The AI policy and governance working group, led by Dr. Alondra Nelson, aims to ensure responsible development and use of AI globally. The group convenes public conversations to address issues like inequality, climate change, privacy, and human rights.
Challenges and Questions in AI Governance
The conversation highlighted the need for global collaboration and policy in addressing the transnational impacts of AI. Questions were raised about the kind of global governance needed and what forms it should take. The challenges discussed included equitable distribution of benefits, prevention of misuse, consolidation of power, and the evolving nature of AI.
Engaging Engineers, Closing the Gap
The gap between AI engineers and policymakers, academics, and other stakeholders needs to be bridged. Engineers play a critical role in shaping the future of AI, and their involvement in discussions about ethics, transparency, and accountability is essential. It is important to find ways to incentivize engineers towards responsible and ethical AI development.
Public Engagement and Grassroots Movements
Social, local, and grassroots movements have a role to play in shaping global rules, norms, and accountability around AI. The public's voice is crucial in determining the direction AI governance should take. Including a diverse range of perspectives and engaging the public in conversations about AI is vital for creating a more inclusive and responsible AI ecosystem.
