Kristina Fort joined the Cinkátko podcast to discuss AI governance, regulatory challenges, and the future societal impact of artificial intelligence
Our Senior Fellow, Kristina Fort, joined Stanislav Fort on the Cinkátko podcast to discuss the latest developments in artificial intelligence, AI governance, and the evolving regulatory landscape.
The conversation underscored the unprecedented speed of AI advancements and the challenge this poses for policymakers and businesses alike.
“Regulations need to be flexible. We cannot rely on standard legislative timelines because AI is changing so rapidly – we don’t know what these models will look like in a few months, let alone a year”.
Kristina highlighted the core dilemma of AI governance: how to regulate a technology that is continuously evolving. Anticipating future developments is extremely difficult, and predicting how new changes will be adopted by both the public and industry adds another layer of complexity. This uncertainty calls for adaptive and forward-looking regulatory frameworks rather than rigid, long-cycle legislation.
The discussion also explored how AI is presented in the public sphere. According to Kristina, the debate is often “both overhyped and underhyped” – overhyped in relation to narrow applications and tools, but underhyped when it comes to fundamental questions about AI’s long-term societal impact, including its transformative effect on labor markets, economies, and political systems.
“We are still missing the most urgent conversation: What happens when a large share of cognitive work becomes automated?”.
As an example of proactive AI governance, Kristina pointed to the United Kingdom, which has shown strong political will to prepare for an AI-driven future. Efforts launched under former Prime Minister Rishi Sunak have continued under the current Labour government, with a clear message: Britain must stay ahead as a global leader in AI policy. These initiatives include investing in data centers, building expert capacity within government, and shaping international discussions on AI regulation.
