“SIIA applauds the White House for its announcement of new policy initiatives to advance the development and use of responsible artificial intelligence (AI). We are particularly pleased to see a focus on robust engagement with the private sector. Public-private collaboration is critical to advance the opportunities of AI, promote innovation to seize those opportunities, and ensure that AI develops with due regard to safety, security, and civil rights.
