We will start by watching together a talk <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g05om2NJwco> together by Jason Matheny <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jason_Gaverick_Matheny> on this very issue. Jason is an EA who has had many highly influential roles in his career. He is the Founding Director of the Center for Security and Emerging Technologies <https://cset.georgetown.edu> at Georgetown University in Washington D.C. and previously served as Director of IARPA <https://www.iarpa.gov/index.php/about-iarpa> for the US Government. He also worked previously at the Future of Humanity Institute in Oxford and is one of the first people who proposed researching cultured meat. Depending on the interests of the participants, we will proceed to discuss issues brought up by the talk or completely unrelated ideas. We look forward to seeing many of you there! *Date and Time: *Wednesday, 27th of May, 19:00 - 21:00 *Zoom Link:* https://rwth.zoom.us/j/612131872?pwd=TDFrNEIzNnFWaUd4TiswTjgzZGhKUT09 <https://www.google.com/url?q=https://rwth.zoom.us/j/612131872?pwd%3DTDFrNEIzNnFWaUd4TiswTjgzZGhKUT09&sa=D&usd=2&usg=AOvVaw3efEOd_IWQXPxKYtiXDWhF> *Meeting ID: *612 131 872 *Password*: 051904 *Discussion on AI Governance: 3rd of June* AI Governance is an emerging field dealing with the ways we can address the challenge of Advanced Artificial Intelligence on a policy level.
