Despite a series of actions and proposals to regulate artificial intelligence (AI), national guardrails on AI have stalled without congressional support. With the election season underway, what will be done to operationalize President Biden’s recent executive order on the issue, and will Congress be able to advance near-term bipartisan AI legislation?
In a new commentary, Nicol Turner Lee and Jack Malamud outline what actions the White House has taken to ensure more secure and trustworthy AI and what Congress should do next.
“Lingering proposals and the failure to act will only encourage bad actors to fill the AI space with algorithms subject to few rules and inadequate human guardrails.”

The authors highlight takeaways from their recent Brookings report, which simulated several class-based affirmative action policies to understand their potential effects on racial diversity, as well as the monetary costs.
