U.S. Department of Commerce appoints Aneesh Chopra to National AI Advisory Committee

The U.S. Secretary of Commerce announced the appointment of Arcadia’s Chief Strategy Officer, Aneesh Chopra, to the National AI Advisory Committee, which advises the President and the White House on a range of issues related to artificial intelligence.

The committee, launched in 2022, provides recommendations on topics including the current state of U.S. AI competitiveness, the state of science around AI, and AI workforce issues. The committee also is responsible for advice regarding the management and coordination of the initiative itself, including its balance of activities and funding.

“Empowering our nation’s top talent in AI across academia, industry, non-profits and civil society is fundamental to the responsible development and deployment of this generation-defining technology. That’s why NAIAC’s work is so critical to our collaborative effort to mitigate the risks so we can harness the benefits of artificial intelligence,” said Secretary Raimondo. “These new committee members represent some of the best in their field, and I am confident will play an important part in helping NAIAC to meet its mission to provide the expertise and guidance necessary to maintain U.S. global leadership on AI.”
