Theory of Change
SeedAI believes that better AI outcomes — including safer, more equitable, and more beneficial AI — require informed policymakers and AI-literate communities. By educating Congressional and federal staff through Tech Labs and AI Primers, SeedAI aims to raise the quality of AI legislation and regulation. By engaging communities across the country through AI Across America, it ensures that diverse voices shape how AI is developed and deployed, reducing the risk that AI governance is captured by a narrow set of interests. The causal chain is: educated policymakers make better AI policy, and communities with a stake in AI development hold institutions accountable — together producing governance that is more responsive, robust, and aligned with broad societal interests.
