Government AI Hire, Use, Buy (HUB) Roundtable Series

Georgetown University’s Center for Security and Emerging Technology (CSET) and the Beeck Center for Social Impact and Innovation (Beeck Center), together with the Georgetown Law Institute for Technology Law and Policy (Tech Institute), are leading a series of invite-only roundtables examining the government’s use of artificial intelligence (AI).

Results of this concluding roundtable will feature in a final public webinar.
