Join SAILS and SLATA for an inside perspective on U.S. AI policy with Nik Marda, former Chief of Staff for the Technology Division of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy. Nik managed the policy process for a team that is advancing tech and data to benefit all Americans. Over the past two years at the White House, Nik played a key role in shaping the Biden-Harris Administration’s AI policy, including the recent Executive Order on AI, federal guidance on government use of AI, and the Blueprint for an AI Bill of Rights.  Nik will speak about his AI policy for 30 minutes, and then there will be 30 minutes for moderated Q&A. All are welcome.
