WASHINGTON, Oct. 15 (Reuters) - A new US government task force focused on artificial intelligence is set to convene on Thursday, according to a Federal Trade Commission spokesperson. President Donald Trump has named the group the Super Intelligence Task Force. The initiative comes as public concern over AI risks grows, with a recent Reuters/Ipsos poll indicating that most American voters believe the administration and Congress are not adequately addressing these dangers and desire new regulations for the technology. The task force is led by Director of National Intelligence Jay Clayton, alongside Office of Personnel Management Director Scott Kupor, FTC Chairman Andrew Ferguson, and Defense Department technology lead Emil Michael. Kupor indicated that the group plans to issue a charter detailing its objectives and duties following its initial full committee meeting.
