Comment on Joe Biden Wants US Government Algorithms Tested for Potential Harm Against Citizens

Interesting. I want algorithms to warn us about potential harms by Joe Biden. What if we were able to fund an AI run by the GAO that can tell us when government decisions make the majority of our lives worse?
It’s a long way off and might be a bad idea to trust an AI outright, but I just wish we had a more data informed government.

You might be interested in data.gov. The Obama admin kicked of the Government Open Data Initiative to provide transparency in government. Agencies have been given a means to publish their data, which US taxes pay for. You’d be surprised what’s in there. It’s not an algorithm, but you could certainly build one from that if you wanted to.
