Governing AI, governing with AI: tools and strategies for the digital age

Over the course of one day, we will bring together researchers, regulators, and practitioners to take stock of where we are, and what effective AI governance needs to look like — from detecting unfair AI-driven practices and managing risks in financial markets, to making regulation more accessible and tracking high-risk AI technologies globally.

Event highlights

The conference will bring together the AI4POL consortium and external experts to present and discuss key findings from the project's first phase, covering: 

  • Preserving control in the age of AI — how regulators and individuals can maintain meaningful oversight as AI systems become more autonomous and harder to govern. 

  • Making regulation accessible — using AI to bridge the gap between complex legal frameworks and the people they are meant to protect, while feeding public experience back into the regulatory process.

  • Trustworthy AI in financial services — how financial regulators can assess and manage the risks posed by AI systems entering their markets, and what a risk-based, ethically grounded policy toolkit looks like in practice. 

  • AI risks and the AI Threat Index — tracking the development and deployment of high-risk AI technologies globally, and what this means for democratic governance and national security.
