Biden looks to preserve tech, cyber legacy with veto threat

“There’s been a fairly consistent message from this administration, and Harris has helped articulate a good chunk of that vision,” Adam Thierer, a senior fellow at the R Street Institute, told Nextgov/FCW. “So I would think it would largely be steady as she goes, in terms of a Harris AI vision being a continuation of the themes we’ve already seen developed in the Biden administration.”

Thierer notes that much of the policy language still operates at a relatively high level of generality, making it hard to know what precise policies Harris was directly responsible for. 

“I do think she was active, however, in this process,” Thierer said. “I think in some ways, I think it’s probably safe to say she was more active in the formulation of these AI policies than President Biden was in some sense.”
