Two weeks ago, President Joe Biden released his National Security Memorandum on Artificial Intelligence.

Senate Select Committee on Intelligence Chairman Mark R. Warner of Virginia has worked to ensure guidelines are created for the use of AI in the United States.

“As we have seen just over the last two years, AI technology is rapidly evolving in a way that will have massive consequences for our economy, national security, and even democracy. I am heartened to see the administration recognize this very fact and take a leadership role to advance AI capabilities while simultaneously promoting responsible research, strong governance that ensures trust and safety, and the protection of human and civil rights,” Warner said in a statement.

Warner noted that the NSM implements many legislative proposals he has advanced such as requirements to promote artificial intelligence security research and address AI cyber vulnerabilities.

“However, as the chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee I am also acutely aware of the many threats to our AI efforts. I encourage the administration to work in the coming months with Congress to advance a clearer strategy to engage the private sector on national security risks directed at AI systems across the AI supply chain.”
