On Thursday, US Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo rolled out the new initiative called the US AI Safety Institute Consortium” (AISIC). It was spawned after an executive order on October, mandating that the US lead the way in safe AI development.
“The U.S. government has a significant role to play in setting the standards and developing the tools we need to mitigate the risks and harness the immense potential of artificial intelligence,” Raimondo said in a release on Thursday. “President ***** directed us to pull every lever to accomplish two key goals: set safety standards and protect our innovation ecosystem. That’s precisely what the U.S. AI Safety Institute Consortium is set up to help us do.”
