CascadiaPrime Cognition - AI Policy


What does a sub-national, national and international AIification Strategy look like? What should it encompass?

Governments everywhere will be challenged by AIification and how best to realize both its benefits and to maintain social cohesion. The prescriptions will vary by circumstance and world views. There will be winners and losers and the winners must aid the losers.

Some national strategies have been effectively captured here, others will be captured in the months to come. Some nations and sub-national governments have AI strategies others do not. There is a classic bell curve of progress with some jurisdictions unaware and unprepared for what is to come. As always, it comes down to leadership.

Artificial intelligence is transnational. Transnational AI policy and governance will be required. Narrow state and ideological focused approaches will have limited utility going forward as AIification deepens.

This section of CascadiaPrime is a work in progress - in a fast paced world of policy implementation.
