Our Policy Reading Group runs every semester and provides a comprehensive introduction to AI governance and policy research. We cover essential topics similar to the Blue Dot curriculum, including AI regulation frameworks, international cooperation on AI safety, risk assessment methodologies, and governance mechanisms for advanced AI systems.

The group meets weekly to discuss policy papers, governance proposals, and real-world case studies that shape how society manages AI development and deployment.

Food is provided at every meeting and no work is required outside of our sessions - just come ready to engage with critical policy questions and thoughtful discussion about AI's societal impact.

Whether you're interested in law, public policy, international relations, or simply want to understand how AI governance works, this reading group offers an accessible entry point into one of the most important policy challenges of our time.
