Program

Given the dramatic, rapid, and unpredictable rate of change of AI capabilities, there is an urgent need for robust, forward-thinking strategies to ensure the security of AI systems. As many national governments have acknowledged, AI models may soon be critical for national security: They could potentially drive advantages in strategic competition—and, in the wrong hands, enable significant harm.

Please join RAND on Thursday, July 18, 4:00 Eastern, for a moderated panel discussion on the increasingly important topic of securing AI, and the implications for national and homeland security. A brief reception will follow the discussion and Q&A.
