Director of AI Policy and Chief Economist at the Foundation for American Innovation
The Future of Artificial Intelligence Innovation Act gets the federal role in AI policy exactly right. Authorizing the Center for AI Standards and Innovation is key to maintaining the United States’ leadership in Artificial Intelligence. As the federal government’s core in-house capacity for measuring and evaluating frontier AI systems, CAISI serves as both a catalyst for driving the adoption of new AI tools and applications and a beacon for exporting U.S. standards around the world.
