讲座内容/ Abstract: 

This talk employs the Stag Hunt game as a foundational metaphor to explore the intricate dynamics of establishing a global policy regime for artificial intelligence (AI). The Stag Hunt, a classic scenario in game theory, aptly captures the tension between cooperation and competition faced by nations navigating the uncharted waters of AI governance. By analogizing countries as participants in a Stag Hunt, where the collective reward of capturing a stag symbolizes the vast benefits of a coordinated global approach to AI policy, versus the individual pursuit of hares representing the safer, yet suboptimal, path of unilateral action, we explore the strategic calculations that underpin international efforts towards AI regulation. Through a Q-learning algorithmic model, we shed light on the potential for countries to learn and adapt their strategies over time. This approach promises to enrich our understanding of global policy challenges and the pathways to achieving shared goals in the digital age.
