Notes

Abstract: This paper offers several steps policymakers could take to utilize and protect U.S. capabilities in AI and associated technologies during the current crisis and beyond. AI presents opportunities to help safely reopen and grow the U.S. economic while minimizing the risk of future outbreaks of the virus, but the AI ecosystem itself is one of the most critical sectors in need of assistance and protection from foreign competitors as it weathers the brutal economic crisis. At the same time, policymakers must be circumspect about AI's ability to solve all of the problems created by the pandemic, especially in areas where there is not enough data to fuel machine learning applications.
