Seminar (live, group)

East and West: State of AI Policy

A live 90-minute seminar on what Washington, the States, and Beijing actually published this quarter on AI policy.

We'll work through three acts:

Act 1 — The West
What the White House, key federal agencies, and state legislatures
(California, Texas, Colorado, New York) actually shipped this quarter.
Not the press releases — the rules that bind. Where compliance
obligations are heading. Which executive orders survived court
challenges. What the bipartisan working groups in Congress are
signaling for next session.

Act 2 — The East
What Beijing actually published, drawn from primary-source Mandarin
documents most Western analysts haven't read. New algorithm
registrations. Updated generative AI rules. Provincial-level
experiments in Hangzhou and Shenzhen. What the language change
in the Cyberspace Administration's filings tells us about where
enforcement is moving.

Act 3 — The Gap
Where the two systems are talking past each other — and where
they're quietly converging. Implications for export controls,
semiconductor flows, and your specific exposure. Live Q&A.

Who this is for:
Policy professionals, corporate strategy leads, investors with
China exposure, and operators trying to read what's coming before
the official translations exist.

What you get:
• Live 90-minute Zoom session with structured Q&A
• Recording within 24 hours
• PDF of the source documents referenced
• A 30-day follow-up window for written questions
