AI is here to stay, and precious few experts with hands-on experience are in the policymaking space to help shape the future AI landscape. With four panelists having made the rare pivot from big tech to civil society, the conversation will focus on lessons learned and lessons needed (on both the industry and civil society side), building bridges to craft more effective and equitable AI policy, and upleveling the type of engagements between the two.
