Artificial Intelligence offers extraordinary promise, but it also brings profound risks, both technical and societal. As systems become more capable, potentially autonomous, and embedded in society, governments face a critical task: how to harness AI for national and international advantage while protecting citizens, institutions, and global stability. The way these choices are made will determine whether AI strengthens our government bodies or outpaces our ability to control it.
Our AI Impact wargames immerse policymakers in plausible near-future scenarios where AI reshapes national security, regulation, and public services. Participants confront dilemmas that cut across departmental boundaries, testing how strategy, communication, and coordination hold up under pressure.
In the game, teams grapple with:
AI will not wait for governments to catch up. These wargames provide policymakers and advisors with the opportunity to rehearse critical decisions before they are implemented, explore regulations, identify blind spots, and enhance coordination across agencies.
The result is foresight that becomes readiness: policymakers who are better prepared to shape AI’s trajectory while protecting national resilience and public trust.
