主讲内容：
Artificial intelligence has emerged as one of the most significant governance challenges facing contemporary states. As governments seek to regulate rapidly evolving technologies while promoting innovation and managing societal risks, they increasingly depend on specialized expertise. Yet an important question remains: how do states organize the expertise needed to govern AI, and why do governance arrangements differ across countries? This lecture examines the institutions through which governments mobilize expertise and incorporate specialized knowledge into AI governance. Drawing on original research covering 142 AI governance organizations across the 27 member states of the European Union, it demonstrates that the governance of AI is not simply a technical challenge but a question of institutional design, state capacity, and the organization of expertise in complex policy environments.
