FAccT Research Drives U.S. Government AI Policy and Regulatory Decisions

Papers presented at the FAccT conference have directly shaped major policy decisions regarding artificial intelligence across U.S. government agencies. Research from the conference informed Federal Trade Commission investigations, the creation of the AI Bill of Rights, and the President's executive order on artificial intelligence. Multiple federal agencies including the Department of Homeland Security, Department of Justice, and National Telecommunications and Information Administration regularly reference FAccT studies in their policy documents. Institutions like NIST continue to track developments emerging from the conference.
