National League of Cities (NLC): Leveraging Procurement for Responsible AI in the Public Sector

The National League of Cities (NLC) is hosting a webinar on Leveraging Procurement for Responsible AI in the Public Sector on Tuesday, May 13^th, from 2:00 PM to 3:00 PM.

While a small fraction of cities and towns have internal capacity to oversee Artificial Intelligence (“AI”), most public-sector AI systems are built by technology companies and acquired for use in government. Collectively, municipalities procure billions of dollars in digital services annually, and AI systems are a growing portion of those contracts. The implementation of responsible AI by local government will largely hinge on the oversight of purchasing AI systems from AI developers. Join NLC, AAAS Center for Scientific Evidence in Public Issues (EPI Center), and Taraaz Research for an insightful discussion on how municipalities can encourage the responsible implementation of AI through strategic procurement processes. Register now for this webinar and learn how to improve AI procurement in your own community.
