The Emerging Global Agendas for AI Safety: The Policy Challenge of AI Safety | Hoover Institution

Monday, April 15, 2024
Hoover Institution | Stanford University
The Hoover Institution and Stanford HAI held The Policy Challenge of AI Safety on Monday, April 15, 2024, from 1:00 - 5:45 PM. This session focused on “The Emerging Global Agendas for AI Safety,” featuring a panel discussion between Philip Zelikow, Botha-Chan Senior Fellow, Hoover Institution, Stanford University and Marietje Schaake, International policy director, Stanford University Cyber Policy Center; International policy fellow, Stanford HAI.
Rapidly advancing AI has prompted a wide spectrum of views about AI safety, ranging from existential fears to skeptical dismissals of “doomers.” Meanwhile, few are tracking the actual policy work that is starting to address these concerns. As the first day of a set of discussions about AI and society, the Hoover Institution held a symposium on AI safety and catastrophic risk. Our speakers are those who are actually working on policy initiatives, conducting initial risk assessments, and developing methods to evaluate frontier models. We discussed and illustrated the state of global work and the way leading companies are comprehending the policy challenge. This half-day forum informed participants as they navigated the risks and analyzed how to sustain fruitful innovation and openness.
