It also facilitated brainstorming sessions focused on the legislative measures necessary to tackle these challenges and provided valuable resources for writing a policy memo and developing an AI risk framework.

I loved engaging in discussions with peers from diverse countries and backgrounds, exchanging perspectives, insights, and concerns about the current landscape of AI. Alisar and Shireen brought immense knowledge to the table and created a supportive and interactive learning environment, which enriched the overall experience. As a Trust and Safety professional, I think it’s my responsibility to deepen my understanding of AI, its mechanisms, and implications and I found this course extremely valuable. Thank you for a great experience!”
