AI Policy Advocacy in the Public Interest

At Americans for Responsible Innovation (ARI), we believe that AI and other emerging technologies could have a transformational impact on society – for better or worse. That’s why we’re advocating for the U.S. government to take a thoughtful and proactive approach to AI governance that protects the public while maintaining our country’s competitive edge.
