OpenAI CEO Sam Altman will make his first appearance before Congress on May 16 to discuss artificial intelligence (AI) regulation in the United States during a hearing on oversight. Also testifying will be IBM’s chief privacy and trust officer, Christina Montgomery — who is a member of the U.S. National Artificial Intelligence Advisory Committee — and New York University emeritus professor Gary Marcus.
Details remain scarce concerning the hearing’s agenda. Its title, “Oversight of A.I.: Rules for Artificial Intelligence,” implies the discussion will center on safety and privacy, as does the roster of scheduled attendees.
