Panel: The AI Governance Puzzle: Assembling the Pieces of Policy and Trust
The AI governance landscape is evolving rapidly, with significant developments such as the White House’s AI Executive Order and NIST’s AI Risk Management Framework catalyzing legislative action to mitigate AI risks and enhance transparency. As state and local governments initiate their own regulatory measures, the crucial question facing policymakers is finding an equilibrium that fosters responsible innovation and cultivates public trust in AI technologies. This panel will delve into the current state of AI governance, assessing the practicality of various governance approaches that can be implemented in the near term versus those contingent on the maturation of AI standards. We’ll discuss the emerging frameworks, tools, and legislation poised to define the trajectory of AI governance.
Speakers:
- Miranda Bogen, Director, AI Governance Lab, CDT
- Adam Thierer, Senior Fellow, R Street Institute
