In the last year, open foundation models have proliferated widely. Given the rapid adoption of these models, cultivating a responsible open source AI ecosystem is crucial and urgent. Our workshop presents an opportunity to learn from experts in different fields who have worked on responsible release strategies, risk mitigation, and policy interventions that can help.
The event will feature conversations with experts who have:
Worked in computer science and tech policy on responsible release practices for open foundation models
Developed and deployed best practices for open source software in past waves of free and open-source software
Implemented and developed tech policy for responsible technology use.

Speakers will discuss the huge design space for architecting a responsible open-source foundation model ecosystem, draw on lessons from past waves of open-source software, and develop risk mitigation principles.
Session 2: Practices
10:45 AM – 12:15 PM PT
How do developers reason about responsible foundation models in practice? Panelists will discuss best practices for responsible open foundation model development, drawn from hard-won insights from real-world experience.
Session 3: Policy
12:30 PM – 2:30 PM PT
Many of the debates around open foundation models are fundamentally about what stance policymakers should take for legislating and regulating AI. In this panel, tech policy experts will outline what the future looks like, what it should look like, and what policy makers can do today.
The workshop will be held online on September 21, 2023 from 8 AM – 2:30 PM PT. RSVP here. Each session consists of:
