AI policy is dominating #UNGA81 dialogue.🌐 Who’s holding the steering wheel? Are we going in the right direction? Are we going too fast? Are we going off a cliff? 🤔 Read my essay with @hlandemore.bsky.social via @noemamag.com.🙏 We must let the people set the pace of frontier AI!💯 #LLAP🖖
A split-panel graphic featuring a left-aligned, faded-red column of people crossing a street set against the tiers of an empty black-and-white amphitheatre with a right-positioned pink circle accent promotes the Noema Magazine-published essay Let The People Set The Pace Of Frontier AI. The piece is co-authored by Helene Landemore, Damon Wells ‘58 professor of political science at Yale University and distinguished researcher at Oxford Institute for Ethics in AI, and Audrey Tang, Taiwan’s cyber ambassador, first digital minister, architect of the Taiwan Model for digital diplomacy, 2025 Right Livelihood laureate and 2026–27 Carnegie distinguished fellow.
