The Future of Privacy Forum (FPF) has unveiled its Center for Artificial Intelligence (AI) to aid in AI governance and policymaking on an international scale. Unlike similar state-level centers, FPF’s initiative is global, addressing the universal challenges that AI presents. FPF CEO Jules Polonetsky emphasized the importance of a worldwide approach, advocating for collaborative solutions. The center, formally launched at the DC Privacy Forum, will establish best practices, conduct research, track legislation, and provide resources for stakeholders. It aims to bridge local and global perspectives to address diverse AI needs. Anne J. Flanagan, FPF’s VP for AI, highlighted the center’s multi-stakeholder structure, including public sector officials, academia, and the public. The center has already developed a checklist for AI governance, with updates expected in 2024. It will also compare jurisdictional AI policies and prioritize expert assessments to evaluate AI implementations. Supported by varied funding sources, including a 2024 grant from the National Science Foundation and the Department of Energy, the center builds on FPF’s longstanding efforts in AI and privacy.
