Last week, House leaders formally announced the creation of a new bipartisan task force on artificial intelligence — an effort that marks a major step forward in efforts to legislate with representation from both parties. Rep. Yvette Clarke — a Democrat from New York who was one of the first members of Congress to call out the potential harms of artificial intelligence — is one of 24 members on that task force.

In an interview with FedScoop’s Rebecca Heilweil, Clarke discusses her expectations for serving on the bipartisan task force, what concerns her most about the technology and the prospects for regulatory and legislative action.
