write the rules: an ai policy workshop
What makes a good AI policy, and how can you tell whether it will actually work?
Join us for a beginner-friendly, hands-on workshop where you’ll work in a small group to create a practical AI policy around a real-world challenge.
Then, using Codex, you’ll build a simple simulation to test your policy and explore its possible impacts. You’ll see how different rules and decisions can affect safety, access, accountability, human oversight, and what happens when something goes wrong.
No background in AI policy, coding, or cybersecurity is needed. Come curious, meet other women learning and building with AI, and leave with a policy you’ve designed, tested, and improved.
