On February 22, the US Department of Justice (DOJ) designated Jonathan Mayer as the DOJ’s first “Chief Science Technology Advisor and Chief Artificial Intelligence Officer.” Mayer will work under DOJ’s Office of Legal Policy to aid in coordinating a group of experts in cybersecurity, artificial intelligence (AI), and other technology-related areas.

As Chief Science and Technology Officer, Mayer will advise DOJ leadership on technical issues and emerging technologies, including matters related to AI and cybersecurity. As Chief AI Officer, Mayer will work on cross-agency efforts related to AI pursuant to the President’s Executive Order on the Safe, Secure, and Trustworthy Development and Use of Artificial Intelligence. Mayer will also spearhead DOJ’s new Emerging Technology Board to oversee AI and related technologies across DOJ.

According to DOJ, the Department is focused on “keep[ing] pace with rapidly evolving scientific and technological developments” and Attorney General Merrick Garland anticipates that Mayer’s expertise “will be invaluable” in ensuring that DOJ “is prepared for both the challenges and opportunities that new technologies present.”

The DOJ press release can be found here.
