SUMMARY:Governing AI: Policy\, Power\, and Accountability in the Age of Artificial Intelligence | Center for Transformative Media
DESCRIPTION:Artificial intelligence is no longer an emerging technology — it is already embedded in hiring\, healthcare\, public infrastructure\, and democratic processes\, yet the institutions meant to govern it remain incomplete and unevenly distributed across global contexts.\n\nThis webinar treats AI governance as a political and cultural question rather than a technical one: who sets the rules\, whose values are encoded in them\, and what accountability is possible when systems operate across borders and communities.\n\nDrawing on applied ethics\, media and communication studies\, and labor-centered approaches to AI policy\, the conversation traces how regulation is shaped from above\, through legislation\, industry self-governance\, and international bodies\, and contested from below\, through worker organizing\, civil society advocacy\, and grassroots demands for digital sovereignty. Moderated by John Wihbey\, the session brings researchers into dialogue with each other and the audience around the tensions\, possibilities\, and stakes of governing AI as a medium of social and political life.

SUMMARY:IPIE Global Expert Survey 2026 - Launch Webinar
DESCRIPTION:“For the fourth year running\, we asked experts who study the information environment what they’re seeing in their respective countries. The answer is sobering: three in four experts now expect it to worsen over the next year\, the highest level we’ve recorded since the survey began. \nJoin us on 16 September at 18:00 CEST for a virtual briefing on the findings of the IPIE‘s Global Expert Survey 2026\, drawn from 470 experts across 71 countries. \nWhat you will hear: \n\nWhy unaccountable platforms\, not generative AI\, remain experts’ biggest concern\nAn increasing concern over generative AI\, especially AI generated video\nWhat AI summaries in search engines mean for news traffic and the diversity of viewpoints people see\nWhy funding and data access are making the information environment harder to study.”\n\nClick here to register to attend. Note: Event details are listed in CEST (UTC+2).
