AI Aspirations:
R&D for Public Missions
Let’s put AI to work for our country’s great aspirations. Agencies across government are moving quickly to implement President Biden’s executive order to mitigate AI risks, including risks to safety, security, civil rights, privacy, and work. As we build this critically important foundation for responsible AI use, it’s time to create a future of better health and opportunity for all, mitigate climate change and boost resilience, build robust infrastructure and manufacturing, ensure the government works for every American, and more.
