AI: Legal and Policy Considerations and Landmines to Avoid
summary
Overview of U.S. policy is practical: the FTC issues high‑level AI guidance (2020) while federal strategy focuses on investment (American AI Initiative 2019) and new offices (National AI Initiative Office Jan 2021); no binding federal rules yet. Cite tests and tools: MIT’s Moral Machine crowdsources trolleylike AV choices and shows systematic bias against the elderly. Pending laws include the Algorithmic Accountability Act (did not pass) and state bills in California, Washington and Maryland. Governance checklist: fairness/effectiveness metrics, transparency reports, competence standards, and accountability with override and appeal mechanisms.
