Politicians Need To Learn How Ai Works — Fast\

Missy Cummings, an automation expert and former fighter pilot, believes that a course to teach policymakers about artificial intelligence can help regulate the technology and ensure that it is used responsibly. Cummings has studied the use of AI and automation in safety critical systems such as cars and aircraft, and has expressed concern about the capabilities of autonomous systems currently being deployed by many car manufacturers. She believes that automated driving features, like large language models, rely on machine learning algorithms that are unpredictable and hard to inspect, and require a different kind of engineering thinking.
