Data-driven turnarounds are transforming how struggling businesses find their path back to profitability. When companies falter, the key to recovery can often lies in understanding which 20% of customers and products generate 80% of profits. But how do you quickly identify these critical assets when time is running out? What metrics should you prioritize when cash flow is tight? For data professionals, the challenge extends beyond analysis to implementation—balancing the need for automation of routine tasks while reskilling employees for higher-value work. The intersection of empathy and analytics becomes crucial as teams navigate the emotional journey of organizational change while making tough decisions based on hard numbers.

Please join PyData Pittsburgh for the talk The emerging AI regulatory landscape: What technology practitioners need to know from patent attorney, space lawyer, and technology transfer maven Steven Wood. Steven's talk will touch on major developments in the legal and regulatory landscape affecting the development and use of AI technology, including the EU AI Act, the US Executive Order on the "Safe, Secure, and Trustworthy Development and Use of AI", export controls, concerns around intellectual property and copyright, and more.

We'll be gathering in person at the Code & Supply Workspace.

How to find us

Attendees are welcome to use the parking lot associated with the Code & Supply building off St. Clair Street. The front door on Friendship Avenue will be open but is stairs-only. There's an elevator by the parking lot entrance. Head to the third floor and look for signs pointing to the presentation room, where the event will be held. All doors should be unlocked and open, so you're welcome to come right in!

About the talk

Current advances in artificial intelligence (AI) have created much excitement and concern with experts across industry, academia, and government considering both the present and future capabilities of and potential existential threats posed by AI. AI experts, politicians, policymakers, and others have called for regulation and controls on the development and proliferation of AI, some going so far as to suggest that AI represents an extinction-level threat to humanity.

Currently, various regulatory regimes relating to the development and standardization of AI technologies exist and need to be considered. The specific laws depend in part on geographic location, as jurisdictions such as the European Union (EU) already have their own legislation (EU AI Act) and more than 30 US States have started regulating AI, enacting over 50 state-level laws in the absence of broad federal legislation. Further, international efforts between the EU and US seek to provide support and leadership in international standardization efforts by collaborating on development of technical AI standards, some currently underway before the International Organization for Standardization. These standards impact the design, operation, measurement, evaluation, and risk management of trustworthy AI.

In January 2023, the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy published its Blueprint for an AI Bill of Rights and the National Institute of Standards and Technology released an AI Risk Management Framework. On October 30, 2023, building on earlier work, including an executive order directing agencies to combat algorithmic discrimination and obtaining voluntary commitments from major US companies (such as Amazon, Google, Meta, Microsoft and OpenAI) to engage in safe, secure, and trustworthy AI development, US President Joe Biden issued an executive order (EO) on the "Safe, Secure, and Trustworthy Development and Use of AI". In early February 2024, the White House announced that the tasked executive agencies had completed all 90-day actions mandated by this order.

Additional regulatory landscape considerations important to AI include export controls under International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) and Export Administration Regulations (EAR), as well as patentability considerations before the US Patent & Trademark Office. Further critical developments at the intersection with Intellectual Property include the various lawsuits alleging copyright infringement in the training of Large Language Models like Chat-GPT, etc.

With so much action around AI technologies development and regulation, it can be challenging to closely track and understand the implications of everything as it continues to evolve so dynamically. Nevertheless, this academic review will endeavor to provide an accurate snapshot of the current legal regimes and regulatory landscapes impacting AI and its use as a practical guide for AI developers and entrepreneurs.

Attention all CryptoMondays enthusiasts!

In honor of Martin Luther King, Jr we're taking January 15th off.

Martin Luther King Jr. Day (this year), the federal holiday, falls on the actual birthday of the celebrated civil rights leader who was assassinated more than half a century ago. As the US commemorates the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.'s legacy, here are a few things to know about the holiday honoring the slain activist and his fight against inequality and racial injustice.

From subversive to hero

This year marks 56 years since the activist was assassinated.

Today, King is widely lauded as a hero who led a nonviolent crusade against racist segregation policies.

It's been said... "He had to push himself really out of his comfort zone to argue, to debate, to really challenge some of the leaders of this country."

Arizona opposed the holiday until a referendum was passed in 1992, after the state lost an estimated $500 million in revenue when the NFL moved the 1993 Super Bowl game to California in protest.

The timing is also in line with the Uniform Holiday Act of 1968, which ensures a long weekend for workers.

In 1994, under then-President Bill Clinton, it became the only federal holiday dedicated to volunteerism after Congress passed the King Holiday and Service Act. Americans are encouraged to observe the day "with acts of civic work and community service" in honor of King's legacy.

We're excited to share with our community what we've been building. See you next week!!!!
