Artificial Intelligence has the potential to revolutionize virtually every aspect of modern life in a way that makes everything from healthcare to agriculture more convenient, effective, and affordable. While self-driving automobiles and other transformative technologies might be welcome innovations, AI technology presents urgent societal and national security challenges including job displacement, deepfakes, and potential cyberthreats from nations like Russia and China. To secure America’s future, policymakers and industry leaders must strike a balance between promoting AI’s benefits while mitigating its risks.
