“I am honored to join the National Artificial Intelligence Advisory Committee to help strengthen U.S. leadership in artificial intelligence research and development. As we continue to deploy new AI systems across public and private sectors, we must implement a risk-based, regulatory framework at the federal level to build transparency, trust, and fairness around these systems.
