The topic of Artificial Intelligence (AI) as one of the most powerful technologies of our times has entered the mainstream political agenda. New AI applications such as recent hype surrounding ChatGPT have captured public imagination and led to broad discussion about their potentials and pitfalls.

The emerging issues of power, politics and policy of AI are studied in a new special issue, published in Review of Policy Research. The special issue “Politics and policy of Artificial Intelligence” brings together nine research articles that focus on co-shaping of AI and politics, the role of ideas, power asymmetries, continuity and change, and multi-level interactions. This special issue demonstrates that AI policy is not an apolitical field that can be dealt with just by relying on knowledge and expertise but requires an open debate among alternative views, ideas, values and interests.

The aim of this online seminar is to broaden the discussion on these topics, in particular by looking at recent and forthcoming developments such as emerging governance initiatives for generative AI and forthcoming AI regulations around the world and their implementation.
