Technology trade group ITI has unveiled its 2023 tech policy roadmap outlining 14 recommendations to improve U.S. economic competitiveness.
“For the U.S. to maintain its economic competitiveness, it must advance policies that support technology and the tech ecosystem,” Jason Oxman, president and CEO of ITI, said in a statement published Tuesday.
“ITI’s legislative and policy recommendations provide a roadmap for U.S. lawmakers and the Biden Administration as they examine issues including workforce development, cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, privacy, and more,” Oxman added.
The recommendations outlined in the document include embracing AI; bolstering cybersecurity; modernizing public sector information technology; addressing climate change; increasing digital trade; tailoring export controls and outbound investment restrictions; improving supply chain resilience; deploying next-generation telecommunications; and bolstering U.S. semiconductor manufacturing.
For the AI aspect, the trade association called on the White House and Congress to accelerate the implementation of the National Institute of Standards and Technology’s AI Risk Management Framework to manage AI risks and advance AI adoption.
ITI also urged the current administration to work with the private sector to implement the May 2021 cybersecurity executive order and improve transparency and security of software supply chains and federal networks.
