ITI Applauds Industry Participation in Schumer Insights Forum
WASHINGTON – Today, global tech trade association ITI’s President and CEO Jason Oxman welcomed U.S. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer’s AI Insights Forum, which features ITI members and other technology companies.
“Ensuring collaboration and partnership with the tech industry should remain a top priority for lawmakers as they explore AI policy. Majority Leader Schumer has importantly created a forum for policymakers to learn from technology experts about AI, and how it is being developed and deployed safely and responsibly. We welcome Congress’ interest in exploring AI’s tremendous potential and look forward to working with them to develop a policy framework that appropriately manages risk while maintaining U.S. technological leadership.”
Yesterday, ITI Executive Vice President of Policy Rob Strayer testified before the U.S. Senate Commerce Subcommittee on Consumer Protection, Product Safety, and Data Security on the importance of transparency in AI. ITI also welcomed the White House’s latest round of voluntary commitments with leading AI companies, including several ITI members.
