Advancing Trustworthy Artificial Intelligence
Abstract:
Chairman Lucas, Ranking Member Lofgren, and Members of the Committee: Good morning, and thank you for the opportunity to testify today. I'm the president and CEO of the RAND Corporation, a nonprofit and nonpartisan research organization. Before RAND, I served in the White House National Security Council and Office of Science and Technology Policy, as a commissioner on the National Security Commission on Artificial Intelligence, as assistant director of national intelligence, and as director of the Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity, which develops advanced technologies for the U.S. intelligence community. For the past 75 years, RAND has conducted research in support of U.S. national security and domestic policy. We manage four study and analysis federally funded research and development centers (FFRDCs) for the government focused on national and homeland security. Today, Ill focus my comments on how the federal government can advance AI in a beneficial and trustworthy manner for all Americans.
