Overview
AI and related digital technologies are certain to dramatically impact our economy and the nature of our work. But they also will change how governments operate, including authoritarian regimes looking to use them to exercise greater control over their citizens. This program will bring together a multidisciplinary group of scholars to discuss the impact AI will have on authoritarian regimes, and whether the technology will support or hinder freedom in these countries.
This research discussion will feature a series of short research presentations from our discussion leaders, David Yang, Jason Luo, and Eddie Yang, followed by a breakout discussion portion where participants will be encouraged to discuss their current research and identify opportunities for new projects and collaborations. If you have research interests in this area, we encourage you to apply for this opportunity.
This event takes place on March 27, from 4:30 to 6:00 PM Eastern Time, and will be hosted via Zoom.

- David Yang, Harvard University
