Overview
The firing and rehiring of CEO Sam Altman at OpenAI in the fall of 2023 kickstarted a new phase in the conversation about the governance of artificial intelligence (AI).
Some who previously believed that corporations could self-regulate their research and deployment of AI changed their minds, calling for more direct government regulation of the industry. However, government regulation comes with politicization, bureaucracy, and potential deadweight losses for innovation.
At a recent conference hosted by the Internet Governance Project at Georgia Tech, scholars explored alternatives to government regulation. Government, after all, is not the only source of governance.
Milton Mueller and Karim Farhat—both from the Internet Governance Project at Georgia Tech—will introduce this proposal and paper workshop, which offers an opportunity for scholars to polish ideas about spontaneous and emergent order in AI governance. IHS will welcome participating authors to apply for grant support for research and publication.
This event will take place on November 21 from 4:30 PM to 6:00 PM Eastern Time, and will be hosted via Zoom.
