140 - Guest: Risto Uuk, EU AI Policy Researcher, part 2

This and all episodes at: https://aiandyou.net/ .   I'm often asked what's going to happen with AI being regulated, and my answer is that the place that's most advanced in that respect is the European Union, with its new AI Act. So here to tell us all about that is Risto Uuk. He is a policy researcher at the Future of Life Institute and is focused primarily on researching policy-making on AI to maximize the societal benefits of increasingly powerful AI systems. Previously, Risto worked for the World Economic Forum, did research for the European Commission, and provided research support at Berkeley Existential Risk Initiative, all on AI. He has a master’s degree in Philosophy and Public Policy from the London School of Economics and Political Science. In part 2, we talk about the types of risk described in the act, types of company that could be affected and how, what it’s like to work in this field day to day, and how you can get involved. All this plus our usual look at today's AI headlines. Transcript and URLs referenced at HumanCusp Blog.
