I taught a tutorial on "Governance of Emerging Technologies in China" for the Williams College (Exeter Programme at Oxford) 2019. As the sole instructor, I designed the syllabus, led the tutorial sessions, and evaluated all student works.
The course covered the political implications of emerging technologies in China, with a focus on AI governance. Structured in the format of the Oxford tutorial system , the course investigated the similarities between China's approach to AI governance and its regulation of other dual-use technologies, such as biotechnology.
