Title: Responsible AI: Managing Risk in an Evolving Regulatory and Legal Landscape

Jurisdiction: USA

Authors: Kate E. Middleton and Hannah R. Anderson

Subject:

Artificial Intelligence (“AI”) is driving innovation across industries and is playing an increasing role in everyday life.

But to borrow from the likes of Winston Churchill (or Spider-man), with great AI capabilities comes great responsibility.

Many of the risks and benefits of AI systems are unique in comparison to other technologies. Regulators, governmental agencies, and consumer advocates are keenly focused on addressing unintended consequences that may result from the development and use of algorithms and AI. These issues, like the technology, are complex, and policymakers, stakeholders, and regulators are grappling with how best to address them.
