artificial intelligence on critical infrastructure.
The board will develop recommendations for the transportation sector, pipeline and power grid operators, internet service providers and others to «prevent and prepare for AI-related disruptions to critical services that impact national or economic security, public health, or safety.»
Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas told reporters the board would help ensure the safe deployment of AI technology and how to address threats posed by this technology to vital services like energy, utilities, transportation, defense, information technology, food and agriculture, and financial services.
