Today was my last day as chief of staff of the tech division at @WHOSTP. These past 2.5 years have been so rewarding and fun — and I’m very grateful to have worked with such amazing colleagues. I’ll miss it a lot!

it's all part of the startup life: cofounder breakups, boardroom coups, investor vs board vs founder civil wars, everything but if you're going through it for the first time, it's insanely stressful

Happy global encryption day! Encryption plays a vital role in protecting our privacy & rights and keeping our personal data safe. R&D in encryption and other privacy-enhancing technologies is crucial for ensuring these tools can effectively protect sensitive data in the future.

Just when we most need our government to work—to decarbonize our infrastructure, support marginalized people through a pandemic, and address our housing crisis—it is faltering. So what do we do now? Maybe it’s time to recode the American government. techequitycollaborative.org/…

Today, lawmakers joined together to urge the @WhiteHouse to incorporate the AI Bill of Rights into its upcoming #AI executive order. The letter recommends using the AI Bill of Rights framework to hold both the private & public sector accountable.
Exclusive: Sen. Ed Markey and Rep. Pramila Jayapal are urging President Biden to make the White House's AI Bill of Rights binding policy for the federal government in the upcoming executive order on AI. trib.al/yXB9tgU

.@POTUS: Realizing the promise of AI by managing the risks is going to require new laws, regulations, and oversight. In the weeks ahead I’m going to continue to take executive action to help America lead the way toward responsible innovation.

Amac modeled for all of us how to be an effective public leader- he led with kindness, by lifting up others, & with laser focus on getting the big important stuff done. The country was lucky to have Amac in public service. I was lucky to learn from him. Thank you, my friend.
Today is my last day in the glorious EEOB. It was a huge privilege to get to work here again as part of the Biden Administration. I am extremely grateful and more than a little sad that my time is up. 1/2
