Hip Hop was born out of my home city, NYC. Happy 50th to Hip Hop. Hip hop artists have transformed music, culture and society. Here is to 50 more years of innovation and great music.

.@POTUS: Realizing the promise of AI by managing the risks is going to require new laws, regulations, and oversight.

In the weeks ahead I’m going to continue to take executive action to help America lead the way toward responsible innovation.

I am thankful for the support of @WHOSTP Director Arati Prabhakar and am excited to see all the great work to come from the phenomenal Tech Division. I’ll be cheering them on from @amac.

Today is my last day in the glorious EEOB. It was a huge privilege to get to work here again as part of the Biden Administration. I am extremely grateful and more than a little sad that my time is up.

AI risks and opportunities are coming at cities with dizzying speed -- awesome to see @usmayors convening conversations like this, and proud to have Nik Marda, one of my favorite @WhiteHouse colleagues, at the table!

[Alexander Macgillivray @amac46]

Nik Marda (@nrmarda), the wonderful Chief of Staff of @WHOSTP's Tech Division, was out talking w/ @usmayors today about AI.
Nik is crucial to our work on AI and the Mayors are dealing with AI risks (& opps) in their communities every day.
I'm sure it was a great conversation.

[The United States Conference of Mayors @usmayors]

Chair of USCM's Tech and Innovation Committee @MayorofSeattle led a discussion this afternoon with @nrmarda on cities' role in promoting responsible artificial intelligence innovation that protects Americans’ rights and safety, showcasing Seattle’s approach to Generative AI.
