The Messenger’s AI: Balancing Innovation & Regulation

Date: Tuesday, December 5, 2023
Time: 8:00AM – 11:30AM EST

All at once, AI is everywhere and evolving rapidly.

But while this technology is being quickly adopted, policymakers in the nation’s capital are still in discussions around the eventual shape of AI policy and regulation. Concerns over privacy, misinformation, national security, equity, and more have created a complex regulatory and legislative landscape. In this moment, industry, government, and advocacy groups must work together to get the guardrails right.

What are the next, urgent steps to be taken in terms of AI policy? How can regulations allow for private sector innovation and also reduce risks? And finally, what will the use of this technology mean for society as a whole?

The Messenger will host a live journalism event with government, industry, and advocacy leaders to cover advances in AI as well as legislative and regulatory priorities.

Featured Speaker:

• Alexandra Reeve Givens, President and CEO, Center for Democracy & Technology
• Katie Harbath, CEO of Anchor Change
