Seeing Around the Corner: How AI Is Changing Public Policy Intelligence

You know, we talked about this before you started with here.

And I also spent time in the public policy arena, both on the Hill and some after that.

And I couldn't agree more.

It is such a difficult thing to anticipate and know what's coming down the road.

And that is the key to success, as you said.

So I encouraged you when you were thinking about this to go ahead with it, and I'm so glad you have.

Thanks so much, Kate, for joining us.

It's always a pleasure to chat with you.

Revere kind of speaks to me because I have experience with leading projects that are intended to track kind of regulatory and legislative developments.

And I can attest to how difficult it is.

We have two trackers that I assisted with.

The first was COVID Tracker.

When all these states and state agencies were issuing all this guidance.

I mean, we had a team of folks trying to keep up with all of that.

And then the second, and Jerry, you might remember this one, was the privacy tracker.

And it's almost impossible to keep up with where states are landing with respect to privacy issues.

and artificial intelligence.

And since I help a lot of these financial service players, traditional and fintech with respect to privacy and data security, what I've noticed is that California tends to take the lead on these issues.

It tends to be kind of the first player.

We've also seen it with the regulation of automated decision-making technology or ADMTs.

And in my view, it looks like California has always been kind of the entry point when it comes to privacy or AI or technology generally, even if we have an administration that may be discouraging such regulation.

If I'm advising financial institutions, how do I assist and advise clients to navigate AI regulation and trying to look ahead and what's coming next with Revere? Because something like that would be kind of incredible.
