Hello advisors. Andrew's conversations with experts on leading IT topics 
are always interesting. You might want to put this in your calendar for 
Thursday. Video will also be available if the time doesn't suit.

This topic is trending around the world. Biden has just issued an 
executive order in an attempt to establish safety and security 
standards. Next week, there will be a summit in London. This is a very 
"hot" topic:

"The British media have dubbed it the "doom summit." On Wednesday and 
Thursday, November 1 and 2, at Bletchley Park north of London, Prime 
Minister Rishi Sunak's government will hold the first global conference 
devoted to the risks associated with artificial intelligence

I hope you will find interesting my conversation this Thursday with 
Bianca Wylie, a prominent tech governance advocate. It will focus on the 
AI and Data Act (AIDA) currently before the Canadian Parliament, but 
view it in a wider than usual context. If you are not able to 
participate live, the event video 
<https://cfe.torontomu.ca/events/what-would-governing-ai-democratically-canada-look> will 
be posted the following day on the website of the Centre for Free 
Expression.

Please pass this on to anyone else you think may be interested.

thanks,

Andrew
