Last week, Norm Ai hosted the inaugural Central Park AI Forum in New York, bringing together key leaders exploring the societal, legal and economic implications of frontier AI. The caliber of conversation was exactly what I envisioned when bringing together this group. Check out the highlight reel video below. Thank you @sriramk , @BasedMikeLee , @LHSummers , @chrislehane , @plaffont , @NewJerseyOAG , @tglocer , @WillKinzel , @CFTCberkovitz , @DavidZapolsky , @BenLawsky , @SusanEDudley , @arunanforct , @CFTCjohnson , @Lane_Dilg , and many others.

History shows technology can drive economic growth—but only if policy keeps up. To unlock AI’s potential while safeguarding the public, regulators must deepen their technical expertise and ensure that regulatory requirements factor in AI, @johnjnay and Troy A.

💥 Energy and innovation. 💭 Amazon Web Services (@awscloud) has supported more startups than any other cloud provider. 🎉 Proud to partner with $AMZN for New York Tech Week (@Techweek_), helping to shape the future of generative AI.

Looking forward to exploring AI, regulation & compliance with expert panelists at our July 8 event! Hear from Dan Berkowitz, @reevebull, Cary Coglianese, @SusanEDudley, @MichaelMandel, @johnjnay, Troy Paredes & more. Register today and join us next month lu.ma/ci7uti92?tk=k9EMRw

Today, Norm Ai announces the formation of two executive advisory boards to guide the development and deployment of AI agents in regulated industries. Our newly formed AI Agent Advisory Committee includes CTOs and other technology leaders from Blackstone, Vanguard, TIAA, New York Life Insurance Company, and Coatue. These executives bring deep expertise in enterprise systems and AI strategy, and  collaborate with Norm Ai to define the architectures, frameworks, and policies necessary to deploy AI agents responsibly at scale. In parallel, we are expanding our Regulatory Advisory Board to include Chief Compliance Officers and Chief Legal Officers from Blackstone, TIAA, New York Life Insurance Company, and Coatue, alongside former senior regulators. This board ensures that AI systems are designed with rigorous legal and compliance standards. The formation of these advisory boards follows Norm Ai’s recent $48M funding round led by institutions with more than $15 trillion in assets. It also reflects our ongoing commitment to building the regulatory infrastructure for safe, compliant, and effective AI agent deployment in the enterprise.

Excited to see Norm Ai on the CB Insights 2024 Fintech 100 as a key compliance & risk management solution.

This last year has seen an explosion of AI learning platforms focused on continuously producing the knowledge we need to learn effectively. We believe we're now on the cusp of a 2nd wave of AI learning that will radically transform ~how~ we learn. 5 hunches on what that looks like up on the @usv blog

Norm Ai CEO John Nay (@johnjnay) was recently interviewed at the @NYSE where he shared how we are building Regulatory AI Agents, and why. In this video, John provides color on what a Regulatory AI Agent is. Norm Ai converts regulations into AI agents that can make dynamic compliance determinations.  This enables businesses to complete comprehensive compliance analyses nearly instantaneously, while also empowering clients to understand the basis for a determination and how to specifically improve content to make it more compliant. Through the Norm Regulatory AI Domain Specific Language, we produce a representation a human can view, and at the same time, enable the animation of the regulation into a live machine implementation. The Norm Ai Computational Law approach: 1. Ensures our Regulatory AI agents make highly reliable determinations of whether any content submitted by a user is compliant. 2. Provides deep explanations to humans. John shares more, and some case studies of specific regulations, in this interview.

John Nay, Founder and CEO of Norm AI, talks about pioneering the concept of Regulatory AI and the team dynamic needed to drive it on #NYSEFloorTalk with @JudyKShaw | @normativeai
