Absrtract: Drawing from interdisciplinary studies in the research group on AI and Society at Lund University, Stefan Larsson points to challenges found in the intersection of generative AI and societal concerns and their corresponding attempts of governance and regulation to mitigate these concerns. This includes both i) "traditional" AI concerns of lack of transparency, but also a set of issues relating to lack of control, reproduction of social bias and harmful content as well as ii) implications of regulating a moving target as such.
