Niskanen Center — program-note: AI policy addressed ad hoc through individual fellows (Samuel Hammond on AI and institutions, Jennifer Pahlka on AI in government). Policy departments: Climate, Criminal Justice, Immigration, Social Policy, State Capacity, Government Affairs, Legal.
The source confirms the existence of the seven policy departments listed in the claim. It also confirms that Samuel Hammond and Jennifer Pahlka are both Senior Fellows at Niskanen Center. However, the source does not explicitly state that AI policy is 'addressed ad hoc through individual fellows' or that Hammond works on 'AI and institutions' or that Pahlka works on 'AI in government.' The source only lists their titles as Senior Fellows without specifying their policy focus areas. The claim about how AI policy is handled is not addressed in the source material, making it unverifiable from this page. The department list is confirmed, but the characterization of AI policy handling and the specific focus areas of Hammond and Pahlka cannot be verified from the provided source.
