Charting a Responsible Future in AI & Biosecurity: A Webinar Series

Rolling Submissions

Description

This two-part webinar will bring together technology developers, researchers, and policymakers working at the intersection of generative artificial intelligence (AI) and biological research for nuanced discussions that explore the impact of these technologies on innovation, potential biosecurity risks, and promising solutions. The first session (Nov 6) will examine the technological capabilities and bridge the needs for risk management between developers and policymakers. The second session (Nov 15) will focus on governance of th...

Grantor Contact Informationhttps://www.nationalacademies.org/contact-usGrantor Emailmicrobialthreats@nas.eduOther Grantor InformaitonThe National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine are private, nonprofit institutions that provide independent, objective advice to inform policy with evidence, spark progress and innovation, and confront challenging issues for the benefit of society. They are comprised of three academies: the National Academy of Sciences, the National Academy of Engineering, and the National Academy of Medicine. The organization convenes hundreds of conferences, workshops, and symposia annually, bringing together leading experts from academia, public, and private sectors. Their work focuses on providing high-quality, evidence-based consensus on complex scientific, engineering, and health-related challenges. They produce peer-reviewed reports, publish scientific journals, and serve as a trusted source of expert advice for policymaking. The National Academies mobilize approximately 6,000 top experts each year who volunteer their time and knowledge to conduct policy studies, workshops, and other activities aimed at addressing critical issues facing the nation and world.

Additional informationRecent developments in generative AI tools have expanded the boundaries of life sciences research. AI-enabled tools can optimize biological design, but there are biosecurity risks if used for producing pathogens with pandemic potential. Additional URLs:
