CDT Sends Letter to House Energy & Commerce Leaders on How Privacy Impacts AI

/ Eric Null

On October 17, CDT sent a letter to House Energy & Commerce leadership urging them to pass comprehensive privacy legislation as a foundational pillar of AI governance, and arguing that privacy is essential for responsible, rights-respecting AI innovation.

Passing comprehensive privacy legislation such as ADPPA is a key step in protecting against AI-related harms. Core aspects of ADPPA, including data minimization, protecting civil rights, and algorithmic impact assessments, would help address some of the privacy harms related to AI and provide a critical underpinning to Congress’ further work on AI.
