AI governance and policy (Article)

About this episode

Today’s release is a reading of our career review of AI governance and policy, written and narrated by Cody Fenwick.

Given the high stakes, pursuing this career path could be many people’s highest-impact option. But they should be very careful not to accidentally exacerbate the threats rather than mitigate them.
