    044 / AI Roundtable with Senator Scott Wiener

    On October 9th, SHACK15 hosted a roundtable discussion led by California State Senator Scott Wiener, which focused on artificial intelligence, regulation, and creating local impact within the Bay Area. Senator Wiener, who actively put forth legislation with backing from a few of the Bay Area's largest tech and AI companies, took questions from SHACK15 members working in AI and other fields. The event was hosted by Michael Seiler, whose impact acceleration consulting firm, Collective Impact, leverages growth marketing and new technology for those working on the frontlines of social and environmental challenges, introduced by SHACK15 programming manager Jaron Gandelman. San Francisco has established itself as the global center for AI innovation, with an unparalleled concentration of builders, VCs, and AI-focused funding. As AI continues to shape industries and societal structures, there is an urgent need to consider the regulatory framework that governs its development and use, particularly in ways that create meaningful local impact. Senator Wiener’s forthcoming AI regulation bill aims to address these challenges, and this discussion serves as a platform to gather critical feedback from the builder community. Let's listen.
