Cyber Project Special Roundtable Discussion with the National Security Commission on Artificial Intelligence

RSVP Required Harvard Faculty, Fellows, Staff, and Students

The Cyber Project is excited to host the National Security Commission on Artificial Intelligence (NSCAI) Executive Director, Yll Bajraktari, and the Commission’s Directors for Research and Analysis for a conversation on the implications of artificial intelligence (AI) on national security and defense.  RSVP required; a light breakfast will be served.

How the United States adopts AI will have profound ramifications for our immediate security, economic well-being, and position in the world.  The Commission’s Interim Report to Congress provides an initial assessment on AI’s relationship to national security, preliminary judgements on areas where the United States can do better, and suggests interim actions the government can take today.  The Commission looks forward to hearing from the Harvard community on the types of recommendations that must be considered to prepare for an AI future.
