SUMMARY:CITRIS Tech Policy Conversation: Governing AI Safety\, Catastrophic Risk\, and Public Harms
DESCRIPTION:Join the CITRIS Tech Policy Initiative on Tuesday\, December 8\, for a conversation on the challenges of governing artificial intelligence\, featuring California State Chief Information Officer Chris Given in discussion with CITRIS Executive Director Camille Crittenden. \nAs AI reshapes government\, industry and everyday life\, policymakers face increasingly complex questions about how to address both catastrophic risks and immediate public harms. This installment of Tech Policy Conversations will bring together leaders from government\, industry\, civil society and academia to examine emerging approaches to AI safety\, accountability and responsible innovation. \nThe program will feature a cross-sector panel exploring policy priorities ranging from California’s frontier AI safety legislation (SB 53) to automated decision-making\, algorithmic bias and online safety for children. Panelists will discuss how collaboration across sectors can help establish effective safeguards while supporting innovation in the public interest. \nPanelists include: \n\nVera Zakem\, California Department of Technology\nMargaret Tucker\, GitHub\nRobbie Torney\, Common Sense Media\nWill Fithian\, UC Berkeley\n\nThe event will also feature lightning presentations highlighting university-led tech policy initiatives\, followed by a reception and student research poster showcase. \nEvent details\nDate: Tuesday\, December 8\, 2026\nTime: 4–6 p.m.\nLocation: Banatao Auditorium\, Sutardja Dai Hall\, UC Berkeley
