This is an interesting read for anyone curious about how we legislate for a safe, secure, ethnical AI. Because where the U.S. goes, in terms of legislation, the rest of the Western world tends to follow. Apart from with chlorinated chicken (Got to count your blessings). Even more interesting to reflect on how Silicon Valley has played the public and the US government. #AI #safetybill #SB1047 #Siliconvalley #openAI

We had an intriguing question from the audience in today's webinar "Breaking Barriers: Transforming Communication in Compliance and Risk Management": "How does one modify a confidently non-traditional speaking style to be more 'board room appropriate' without losing that voice and persona?" Boards and executives often prefer simple, direct, and concise communications over complex and dense material. This streamlines decision-making, ensuring key points are easily understood and actionable, without getting bogged down by unnecessary detail. Can you use humor? It depends on your audience, but like most things with people and engagement, thoughtfully designed lightbulb moments can make big impact and build rapport. What are your thoughts? Share your experiences and strategies. Huge thanks to all who attended today and to my incredible copilot Alan Wilemon for sharing his talent creating fun and engaging experiences in #privacy and #compliance. #EngagementStrategies #SimplicityRules

Real or fabricated, threats like these are increasingly plausible. The implications? ⏳ Operational Disruptions: Restoring and securing systems after such a breach could be costly and time-consuming, affecting the normal operations of the Federal Reserve and its ability to manage monetary policy effectively. 💲 Financial and Economic Turbulence: A breach could undermine public confidence in the banking system, potentially causing bank runs and market volatility due to fears of financial instability and fraud. 🛡️ National Security Concerns: Leaked data could include sensitive national operations, posing a threat if exploited by domestic or foreign entities, impacting U.S. economic strategies and security. 🌎 International Repercussions: Confidence in the U.S. as a leader in financial stability could be shaken internationally, affecting foreign investments and the global standing of U.S. financial institutions. 📜 Regulatory and Cybersecurity Reforms: The hack could prompt significant legal scrutiny, stricter regulatory measures, and a comprehensive overhaul of cybersecurity practices across the financial sector. How would your team respond? https://lnkd.in/gGyQf6Jk #Cybersecurity #Ransomware #FederalReserve #LockBit #DataBreach #FinancialSecurity #Scenarios

“Math at scale is what Excel brought us in some sense.   Or from telephone to email to instant messaging. These are tech that have changed how we work, how we engage, but also it's accelerated our work and I think that's what AI is going to do for us. But it's going to change our work in ways that we still don't really understand. And so our approach is to get this technology into the hands of our employees so that they can tell us what it can do in the context of how they are operating. It's a test-and-learn approach. You will inevitably be wrong." Steve Holden, Ph.D., SVP and Head of Single-Family Analytics speaking on the principles of AI innovation and risk management: balance, transparency, and humility. Join over 60 leaders in the cross-cutting disciplines of risk, resilience, security, compliance, and technology for thought-provoking conversations on emerging risks at the Fannie Mae Midtown offices in Washington, DC this Thursday. #AI #AIRisk #Innovation #RiskManagement #OrganizationalResilience #CrisisManagement #Scenarios #ScenarioTesting

A friend in international security streamed some of Vivek Ramaswamy's conversation at the Aspen Security Forum. Vivek discussed applying enterprise #data and technology #transformation principles from the private sector to the Federal government without fully considering the implications of centralization or differences in how bureaucratic departments operate compared to a marketing analytics department at a #social media company. He showed a lack of knowledge on how data silos in key intelligence agencies and the state department may differ from data silos at a #pharmaceutical company. The federal government has no profit center where the private sector is incentivized to share data across business units to drive a material impact or #profit. Vivek went so far as to say "the government P&L" or profit and loss statement... which doesn't exist. All I could think of was "#DOGE" proposing a fully centralized data infrastructure for every intelligence agency and bureaucratic department in the federal government. And I couldn't help but think how an enterprise mindset would create an incredible node for cyber attacks driven by state and non-state actors, making the Federal government even less resilient. For my friends and colleagues in government, it's great that we are looking for new ways to modernize and improve processes and systems. The private sector will continue to leverage #innovation more effectively, but not every practice in the private sector is suitable for the government. I recommended that Vivek Ramaswamy and the crew start by examining other government technology modernization initiatives, such as those led by the Ministry of Digital Affairs in Taiwan or the Ministry of Digital Transformation of Ukraine. Because of the disruptive nature of the Bay Area approach, it sounds so silly in a government context. Either way, it's great to see more light shining on the data and #AI worlds, and I hope the debate continues.
