Congressman Don Beyer Chats with Computer Scientist Hal Daumé III

Like many Americans, members of Congress are struggling to understand the costs and benefits as well as the workings of various forms of AI. But Congressman Don Beyer is not your average member. Like other members, he serves on several committees, including the Joint Economic Committee and the House Committee on Ways and Means. However, Beyer also enrolled as a student in artificial intelligence at George Mason University because he is fascinated by AI and wants to apply his understanding to legislation. In this webinar, Hub friend Professor Hal Daumé will ask the Congressman about his coursework, how his understanding of AI can help other members keep up with the technology, and whether and how Congress should regulate high-risk AI.
