As AI moves beyond language into systems that can perceive, understand, and act in the physical world, a new frontier is emerging: world models—AI systems that build and maintain working representations of real environments to predict how they change in response to action.

Daniel Zhang, Caroline Meinhardt, Jiajun Wu, and Russell Wald | The World Model and Spatial Intelligence Era: Governing AI Beyond Language

Sep 30, 20263:00 PM - 4:15 PM

As AI moves beyond language into systems that can perceive, understand, and act in the physical world, a new frontier is emerging: world models—AI systems that build and maintain working representations of real environments to predict how they change in response to action.

As the landscape evolves rapidly, this symposium, co-hosted by the Stanford Institute for Human-Centered AI (HAI) and the Stanford Cyber Policy Center, intended to help participants navigate the escalating complexity and make sense of the multifaceted, worldwide policy ecosystem directing society's adoption of AI systems.

With the leaders at global AI Safety Institutes and international organizations, as well as researchers and policy leaders on the ground in the EU, BRICS, and Africa, we aimed to unpack intentions, technical specifics, and core tensions underlying major competing visions for global AI governance. By watching this content, participants stand to gain a critical perspective on the pressure points and the key building blocks guiding our collective trajectory.
