Summary
The research project 'AI Techdiplomacy' by ASPI and CIS focuses on the negotiation and establishment of technical standards for artificial intelligence in the Indo-Pacific region. This playbook is designed to assist policymakers, technologists, and civil society in understanding the intricacies of AI standards-setting, emphasizing the need for collaboration among these groups. By providing insights into the roles of governments, industry, and international forums in this process, the project aims to ensure responsible governance and deployment of AI technologies. The initiative is particularly relevant to global AI safety governance frameworks as it addresses the foundational standards crucial for mitigating potential risks associated with AI development.
