This panel aims to explore the evolving regulatory and standard-set ting frameworks governing AI across the transatlantic sphere\, assessing t he intersections and divergences in differing approaches to risk classific ations\, liability structures\, and compliance standards. How will existin g agreements bridge gaps in global AI governance and foster regulatory int eroperability to prevent a fragmented tech ecosystem? What are potential s trategies for maintaining hard-won progress in responsible AI development across the globe? The discussion will critically examine the implications of a new political administration directing the U.S. approach to AI govern ance and will highlight the need to safeguard rights-respecting and democr atic standards in the balancing act of governance.\nPanel 2: The Role of C ivil Society and Research in Shaping Responsible AI Policy\nAs AI governan ce frameworks develop globally\, civil society organizations and research institutions play a crucial role in ensuring AI systems align with ethical standards\, such as transparency and accountability. How will this sector ’s leadership role shift as the global AI landscape shifts? How can civil society partner with industry to align incentives with broader societal pr iorities in order to mitigate some of the worst potential harms of AI? How can civil society effectively pressure AI model developers to address cri tical threats\, including chemical\, biological\, radiological\, and nucle ar risks\, as well as mitigate the risk of increased cybersecurity vulnera bilities? This panel will also highlight the opportunities to grow civil s ociety’s impact in the AI policymaking process\, including strategies for fostering greater collaboration between U.S.\, EU\, UK\, and Canadian poli cymakers and global civil society actors.\nCDT Featured Speaker:\n\nMirand a Bogen\, Director\, CDT AI Governance Lab\n\nRSVP DTSTART:20250521T190000Z DTEND:20250522T003000Z LOCATION:Consulate General of Finland\, 605 3rd Ave #35th\, New York\, NY 1 0158 SUMMARY:All Tech Is Human x Consulate General of Finland New York URL:https://cdt.org/event/all-tech-is-human-x-consulate-general-of-finland- new-york-to-hold-a-curated-gathering-on-may-21st-on-strengthening-multista keholder-collaboration-in-responsible-ai/ END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
