Recommendation

In 1950, English mathematician Alan Turing asked the question, “Can machines think?” Since then, ethicists, storytellers and technologists have envisioned a future awash in artificial intelligence (AI). This report from the Executive Office of the President of the United States outlines 23 recommendations for government agencies and other institutions that will play a role in the age of AI. getAbstract recommends this selection from the report to anyone interested in the game-changing potential of AI and the role that government will play in its development and regulation.

Take-Aways

  • The budding dream of artificial intelligence (AI) has existed since the 1940s, but it didn’t blossom until the technological advancements of the 1990s.
  • AI has great potential to improve quality of life around the globe, but governments, practitioners and researchers must carefully consider the implications of its development.
  • The autonomous vehicle industry is an AI forerunner and will likely set important precedents for its regulation.
