President Biden is expected to sign an executive order next week that will, in part, call on federal agencies to assess how they can better utilize artificial intelligence in their day-to-day operations.
This marks yet another step in the administration's push to adopt the controversial and rapidly advancing technology in more and more sectors of the government and the lives of its citizens.
According to the Washington Post, the White House sent out invitations to a "Safe, Secure, and Trustworthy Artificial Intelligence" event set to take place on Monday, suggesting the long-awaited executive order will be signed shortly thereafter.
Under the terms of the order, federal agencies will be required to assess how they can incorporate AI into their operations, and provide the Biden administration with their findings.
