摘要:
Regulation of artificial intelligence (AI) is booming in the United States. Since 2016, federal lawmakers have passed 23 AI-related bills into law, many more than any other country (see go.nature.com/44j5dis). Now AI scientists are joining the action, trading academia for Capitol Hill on a mission to feed technical advice into proposed laws on AI. Among those who have gone to Washington is Kiri Wagstaff, a computer scientist who temporarily left her teaching position at Oregon State University in Corvallis to work for a year in the office of Senator Mark Kelly, an Arizona Democrat and former astronaut. Wagstaff is one of six AI researchers now serving in Congress through the Science & Technology Policy Fellowships programme run by the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS). The fellows' expertise is unlikely to go to waste. She spoke to Nature about the United States' AI regulation boom, as seen through a scientist's eyes
