What I Learned Teaching a Course on Artificial Intelligence (and You Can, Too)

Some students articulated the view that new regulations and government oversight over the use of cognitive technologies are required. One student suggested that deployments of cognitive technologies require specialized quality assurance, possibly provided by an "independent third party, similar to the auditors of today." But it's not too early to think about the issues that regulations might cover and how we address them. Regarding quality assurance, one thing is sure: new technologies fail in new and unexpected ways. Organizations building and deploying these technologies will need to consider how their testing and risk management procedures need to evolve.
