The AI Bill of Rights and the Future of Technology Policy

We are pleased to be co-sponsoring a policy talk with Dr. Alondra Nelson, “The AI Bill of Rights and the Future of Technology Policy.” As part of a broader Dean’s Symposium, Dr. Nelson will engage in a wide-ranging discussion with Dr. Shobita Parthasarathy, Faculty Director of the Science, Technology, and Public Policy (STPP) Program at the Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy. Dr. Nelson will reflect on her time in the White House, her role as a social scientist involved in shaping science and technology (and particularly AI), her insights into the policy process, and specifically her work on the open access and AI Bill of Rights initiatives.

The policy talk’s details and Dr. Nelson’s bio are included below. We hope that you are able to join us!
