This week's episode of Crossing The Firewall, we discuss Artificial Intelligence (AI), Government policy, and regulations. Can we regulate our way to a safe AI environment, or has the metaphorical train left the station and we are simply on the ride?

Our guest Dr. Johannes Bauer is a Professor in the College of Communication Arts & Sciences at Michigan State University, and Quello Chair for Media and Information Policy.

Dr. Bauer's expertise is in the digital economy, focusing on harnessing the benefits of information and communication technologies (ICTs) while avoiding their downsides. In addition to his role at MSU, Dr. Bauer has also served as Chief Economist in the Office of Economics and Analytics (OEA) of the U.S. Federal Communications Commission in Washington, DC.
