I’m a Canadian currently studying public policy in London. I’m planning to write my dissertation on AI policy and gender, so naturally I’m fascinated by your organization.
Out of curiosity, what is the connection between AI policy and gender you’re looking at?
I’m tentatively planning to look at the government’s role in regards to AI that is discriminating or perceived to be discriminating based on sex. For example, if an AI system was only short-listing men for top jobs, should the government respond with regulation, make it easier for offended parties to challenge in court, try to provide incentives for the company to improve their technology, or something else entirely?
I just started my MA a month ago, though, and won’t be seriously focusing on my dissertation until May, so I will have a much better idea in six months. :)

Very interesting! Please share your findings when they’re ready. Would love to know more.
