November 3, 2023
By: Emily M. Loeb, Caroline Cease, Madeleine Findley, Steve Englund, Benjamin Hand
President Biden has signed a long-awaited executive order that builds upon the Biden Administration’s previously released, non-binding Blueprint for an AI Bill of Rights, and seeks to catalyze both agency action and congressional legislation on artificial intelligence in the coming months. The Federal AI Executive Order covers a myriad of concerns that have been raised relating to AI – from cybersecurity to anti-discrimination to competition.
In an article for Law360, Emily M. Loeb, Caroline Cease, Madeleine Findley, Steve Englund, and Benjamin Hand compare the key elements of major orders governing AI – Federal AI Executive Order alongside the California AI Executive Order, and the G7’s Hiroshima AI Code of Conduct – to help companies understand the risks and concerns they face in building or integrating AI tools into their consumer or enterprise-facing products and services.
