Explain legal, regulatory, and policy issues to technical and other relevant communities (including indigenous communities) and engage in interdisciplinary and multi-stakeholder collaboration and problem solving (e.g., co- designing laws, regulations, and policies to accommodate AI innovation, or helping AI developers and AI users (virtually every organization is either al- ready using or thinking about using AI!) to comply with the emerging body of AI laws, regulations, and policies).
