TPL Co-Director Ryan Calo was referenced by Benham Dayanim in their talk, “AI: Law, Policy and Common Sense Suggestions on How to Stay Out of Trouble” at the 2023 RSA Conference. According to Calo, artificial intelligence is not defined as a “thing, like a train, but rather a set of techniques aimed at approximating some aspect of cognition.” Based on this view, Dayanim suggests that AI should be thought of differently instead of an object or an “industry sector.”
