About The Event
Our panel of Washington D.C. experts will lay out the legal and ethical Analytic Tradecraft requirements that govern the use of any intelligence sources in analysis – including material generated by AI. The primary responsibility is the need to be able to explain underlying data and methodologies. That responsibility is all the more challenging with AI because of the complicated nature of underlying algorithms which are not easily explained to laymen or policy makers. The intelligence professionals trained in our college programs will, therefore, face an ethical challenge of how to honestly meet the tradecraft requirements in the case of AI.
Then we would hear from the private sector about system security challenges posed by AI and about how private industry is attempting to establish governance expectations. What will be the legal and regulatory regime in which our graduates will work? What kind of liability might they face in the event of abuse.
Finally, we will hear from JMU faculty about how AI is worked into the curriculum now. Given all that, what should we be teaching in the future about AI?
This event is open to all.
