President Biden’s Executive Order on the Safe, Secure, and Trustworthy Development and Use of Artificial Intelligence has led to the appointment of Chief Artificial Intelligence Officers (CIAOs) in federal agencies. The mandated position is aimed at coordinating the agency’s use of AI and ensuring that safeguards are put in place to protect human rights and maintain public safety. For example, the US Department of Justice recently appointed Princeton professor Jonathan Mayer as its first CAIO.
The expanding use of AI within NASA is also a factor influencing the appointment of CIAOs. While NASA is known for its space missions, it deals with vast amounts of data generated by its activities. This data comes from various sources such as satellites, telescopes, and space missions, as well as monitoring data related to climate change and exoplanet detection. As a result, CIAOs are now seen as essential figures in organizations to oversee the implementation and regulation of AI technologies.
The role of a CIAO has become increasingly important due to the evolution of AI technologies, particularly generative AI, which has turned AI into a strategic and business priority. This shift has led to the adoption of the job title of CAIO in government organizations and business boardrooms alike. As a result, CIAOs are now responsible for ensuring that AI technologies are implemented responsibly and ethically while maximizing their potential benefits for businesses and society as a whole.
