Transparency is key as AI gets smarter, experts say
Cybersecurity panelists spotlighted multiple risks and threats posed by emerging frontier AI applications.
 
To gain the U.S. government’s trust, advanced AI systems must be engineered from the outset with reliable components offering explainability and transparency, senior federal and industry officials said Friday.

“This [topic] is something I think about a lot,” the CIA’s chief AI officer Lakshmi Raman noted at the Billington Cybersecurity Summit. “And in our [community], it’s about how artificial intelligence can assist and be an intelligence amplifier with the human during the process, keeping their eyes on everything that’s happening and ensuring that, at the end, they’re able to help.”

During a panel, Raman and other current and former government officials underscored the importance of guardrails and oversight — particularly as the U.S. military and IC adopt the technology for an ever-increasing range of operations, and experts predict major breakthroughs will emerge in certain areas within the next few years.

“Trust is such a critical dimension for intelligence,” said Sean Batir, a National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency alum and AWS principal tech lead for frontier AI, quantum and robotics.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

To expect "transparency" from any governmental unit today is wishful thinking.  To expect transparency AND honesty is schizophrenic.

Organizations that are using AI to gain competitive advantage will resist transparency to protect proprietary intellectual property and business practices.
