We will explore key questions shaping the future of AI governance:

• What can the UN realistically achieve in AI governance on a global scale?
• Will competing blocs of AI governance emerge? Will there be overlap or meaningful dialogue between them?
• How scientifically informed can AI governance and policymaking be? Are we effectively balancing technical and societal aspects, or are there critical blind spots?
• What role will other international organisations, such as the OECD, continue to play in AI governance?
• How can research institutes and universities contribute productively to this evolving process?

This event is organised by the Oxford Martin AI Governance Initiative.
