Chief AI Officers Are Making News!
See these recent articles that mentioned us - and you:

• 11/27/23: Axios: DC's Hottest New Job: The Chief AI Officer
"Hundreds of agencies across the federal government are scrambling to find more than 400 chief AI officers by the end of the year. Why it matters: The requirement, one of the edicts of President Biden's recent AI executive order, aims to make sure every arm of government has a top exec who is ready to deal with AI. Driving the news: The Office of Management and Budget has released guidance to federal agencies on how to implement Biden's AI executive order — and how to hire a chief AI officer (CAIO) is on top of that list. The Executive Office of the President is also required to hire a Chief AI Officer."

• 11/15/23: Tanium: The Chief AI Officer is Here. It's Time to Make Room in the C-Suite
"President Biden’s executive order on AI requires all federal agencies to hire a chief artificial intelligence officer (CAIO) to coordinate the adoption of AI, following a handful of companies that have established the role in recent years. The White House mandate is expected to prompt a wave of new hires across the private sector, as an increasing number of companies consider the value of a CAIO and the role this new figure will play in the boardroom. Having an AI expert in the C-suite – someone who understands both its risks and its potential – is imperative now..."

• 10/ 29/23: Forbes: The Case for the Chief AI Officer - A Role Whose Time Has Come 
"Lately, there has been chatter about organizations creating chief AI officer roles, charged with advocating for safe and productive AI practices. David Mathison, founder and chairman of the CDO Club, reports that he is now tracking the "chief AI officer" title in his monthly jobs updates, with seven new chief AI officers being added since September 1st. “While the base of CAIOs worldwide is still small, we continue to see growth in new hires,” he reports."

 
Thanks to the journalists and analysts who are covering this critical new role.
