Can d evelopers explain how their AI systems work and demonstrate that the out puts they generate are not biased? How might governments regulate these systems? Should companies be allowed to regulate themselves? How might g overnments and companies work together to ensure fairness and understand ability of what the systems are doing? \;\n \;\nLast year\, World Privacy Forum\, a privacy-focused research nonprofit\, studied various A I governance tools currently in use around the world. They recently publ ished their findings via a report that was co-authored by Pam Dixon\, ex ecutive director of World Privacy Forum\, and Kate Kaye\, deputy directo r of the organization: \;\nhttps://www.worldprivacyforum.org/2023/12/ new-report-risky-analysis-assessing-and-improving-ai-governance-tools/&# 13\;\n \;\nAt this month's meeting\, World Privacy Forum’s Kate Kaye will join us to share the details of their research methodologies and wh at they learned about how governments are overseeing the implementation of AI in their countries. She'll give an overview of what AI is and what it does\, and she'll also present some examples of both effective and i neffective approaches to good governance of these systems. \;\n \; \nBring your questions and thoughts about AI governance\, and come join the discussion! \;\n \;\nPlease RSVP via this Meetup page or by se nding an email to ta3mevents@pdxprivacy.org. \;\n \;\n \;\nSpea ker bio: \;\n \;\nKate Kaye is a Portland resident and deputy dire ctor of World Privacy Forum\, a nonpartisan public-interest research non profit.
