Governance of Emerging Technologies:
"The Dynamics of Prestige Races: What the Space Race Means for the Future of Technological Development." Under review.
The study of arms races has focused on security motivations. But international races may also be motivated by prestige. This paper defines a ``prestige race" and outlines the significant ways in which such races differ from races for security. The paper illustrates the dynamics of prestige races within the cases of the Cold War Space Race and the burgeoning space race of today. The paper describes implications for the development of emerging technologies, including artificial intelligence.
"Gender, Innovation and Risk."
Women are, on average, more risk averse than men. They also tend to maintain more skeptical attitudes about emerging technologies than men, including GMOs and other biotechnologies. This article argues that including more women within decision making about AI development should generate more cautious and safer AI outcomes.
