Jeffery Smith also commented, “The White House Executive Order has catalyzed a whole-of-government approach to ensure Americans benefit from safe, secure, and trustworthy AI. As Health and Human Services (HHS) works to implement key aspects of the Executive Order, several important efforts are already underway…”
