New AI Czar Unveils Goals

“A new White House task force will have 120 days to report on the risks and opportunities of artificial intelligence—and determine the federal government’s responsibility—according to Jay Clayton, the director of national intelligence who effectively becomes the administration’s AI czar,” the Wall Street Journal reports.

Said Clayton: “The president asked that a group be put together that was going to ensure exactly what he said, that we stay the leaders in superintelligence, and that the interests of the American people are put first.”
