Radius Taking Collective Action to Shape AI Policy: MIT AI Governance

Under current government and corporate AI leadership, many of us feel discouraged or powerless. But if we take strategic action together, we have the power to bring AI under public control and determine how it’s used, how it’s regulated, and whom it benefits. This workshop series provides opportunities for participants to shape AI policy through collective civic action.

In part, this final workshop of the semester will debrief the recent midterm elections in the United States. Primarily, though — and following our first two events on state-level legislation and nation-wide organizing efforts, respectively — we will now examine the state of things at MIT. Taking MIT’s surveillance cameras as our chief case study, we will hear from MIT faculty who will share their own organizing experience and map opportunities for ongoing student action.
