About the Event
Jason will provide an overview of the categories of AI-related threats that Congress has been discussing (e.g. deepfakes, supply chain bottlenecks, bias, privacy, intellectual property theft, weapons of mass destruction, and takeover risk), and then for each category, Jason will describe how far along the current legislative efforts are (a loose framework, a draft bill, committee markup, etc.) along with some brief speculation about if and when and how those bills might move forward. Jason will conclude with some brief observations on why Congress needs to address AI takeover risk and why takeover risk is amenable to legislative solutions.
Free snacks/lunch will be provided. |
