“ Each state or each country having their own AI policies or privacy policies, frankly, doesn't make any sense. Because, most people, especially if you're on cloud, you may not even know where your data sits. There's basic principles and there's basic practices that you can define that are tech agnostic, that you can still have your own tech stack and your own tools. There's lots of solutions and players that work in those components, but you can give basic guidelines to say, here's the steps and the processes and the pieces that you need to put in place. Here's how they form together to create an encapsulation of trust.” – Wendy Turner-Williams
