Panel: Governing AI for good and for all
About this episode
The episode discusses the challenges and collaborative efforts in global AI governance with experts at the 2026 World AI Conference.
As political leaders, industry pioneers and experts from around the world gather in Shanghai for the 2026 World AI Conference and High-Level Meeting on Global AI Governance, we explore key questions facing global AI governance today: What are the biggest challenges now? How can countries compete while working together on safety and governance? And how can the world ensure that AI narrows, not widens, the global development gap? Host Dou Hongyu is joined by Josef Gregory Mahoney, Professor of Politics and International Relations at East China Normal University, Li Lun, Assistant Professor of Economics at Peking University, and Dr. Liu Shaoshan, Director of Embodied Intelligence at Shenzhen Institute of Artificial Intelligence and Robotics for Society.
