Washington, D.C. — Commissioner Christy Goldsmith Romero, sponsor of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission’s Technology Advisory Committee (TAC), announced the agenda for “AI Day.” AI Day will be held at the CFTC’s Washington, D.C. headquarters on May 2, 2024, during a meeting of the TAC from 1:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. (EDT).  The public is invited to come in person or watch the meeting via live webcast at CFTC.gov.  This continues the TAC’s ongoing work to advise the Commission on the complex issues surrounding AI in financial services that are at the intersection of technology, law, and policy.

“We have a fantastic must-watch agenda for AI Day for anyone interested in digging deeper into how regulators should be approaching AI in regulated financial services, including generative AI,” said Commissioner Christy Goldsmith Romero.  “I am excited to hear from some of the foremost AI experts from the standards setter NIST, other financial regulators, and the private sector.  Additionally, TAC’s Emerging and Evolving Technologies Subcommittee will present its draft report on Responsible AI in Financial Markets to the full Committee.” 

The current agenda is as follows, subject to adjustment ahead of the meeting:
