AI is the centerpiece of the rapidly growing technology sector and will be used to make great leaps in all scientific fields, including biotechnology, robotics, and physics. We must expect exponential advances in AI and its impact on other emerging technologies, but there is no agency focused on managing the consequences of these advances.
AI and other emerging technologies not only present future risk, but are also impacting consumers and industries today through autonomous vehicles, manufacturing automation, and AI managed services like Facebook, Google, and others. Research on these present-day impacts is not sufficiently aggregated or understood by any single government entity.
