In August, the Access Board, held public hearings on artificial intelligence (AI) with members of the disability community and others. This series stems from the Board’s Memorandum of Understanding with the American Association of People with Disabilities (AAPD) and the Center for Democracy & Technology (CDT).

The hearings supported the Access Board’s work in fulfilling the executive order on the use of artificial intelligence to engage with disability community members and AI practitioners to learn about the risks and benefits of AI, and to issue recommendations and technical assistance to promote equity, accessibility, and inclusion for all.

In addition to those hearings, the Access Board is accepting written comments of 300 words or less until October 31.
