PCLOB will hold a public forum on Thursday, July 11th on the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in counterterrorism and related national security programs, and privacy and civil liberties issues associated with these uses of AI. The forum, which will help the Board scope and define its oversight of AI-related issues, will be held from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. ET. No registration is required to view this event, which will be livestreamed at www.pclob.gov. South Dakota Senator Mike Rounds, co-chair of the Senate AI Caucus and a member of the Bipartisan Senate AI Working Group, will deliver the forum’s keynote address at the start of the event. Sen. Rounds sits on the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence and the Senate Committee on Armed Services. Following Sen. Rounds’s remarks, the PCLOB’s forum will feature two panel discussions. The forum’s first panel will feature former White House Office of Science and Technology Policy Acting Director Dr. Alondra Nelson, former Office of the Director of National Intelligence Chief Technology Advisor Dean Souleles, National Institute of Standards and Technology Senior Scientist Elham Tabassi, and Special Competitive Studies Project Senior Intelligence Director Chip Usher. The second panel includes Center for Democracy and Technology AI Governance Lab Director Miranda Bogen, National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers Counsel Clare Garvie, George Mason Law School National Security Institute Director Jamil Jaffer, and Justice Department Acting Chief Privacy and Civil Liberties Officer Peter Winn.

Ensuring that federal efforts to prevent terrorism are balanced with the protection of privacy and civil liberties
About us
The Privacy and Civil Liberties Oversight Board (PCLOB) is tasked with ensuring that the federal government's efforts to prevent terrorism are effectively balanced with the need to protect Americans' privacy and civil liberties. The PCLOB is an independent agency within the Executive Branch established by the 9/11 Commission Act of 2007. The bipartisan, five-member Board is appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate. The Chairman serves full time, while the four other Board Members serve in their positions part-time. The Board’s responsibilities comprise two basic functions: oversight and advice. In its oversight role, the Board is authorized to continually review the implementation of Executive Branch policies, procedures, regulations, and information - sharing practices relating to efforts to protect the nation from terrorism, in order to ensure that privacy and civil liberties are protected. The Board also is authorized to continually review any other actions of the Executive Branch relating to efforts to protect the nation from terrorism, in order to determine whether such actions appropriately protect privacy and civil liberties and whether they are consistent with governing laws, regulations, and policies regarding privacy and civil liberties. In its advice role, the Board is authorized to review proposed legislation, regulations, and policies related to efforts to protect the nation from terrorism (as well as the implementation of new and existing policies and legal authorities), in order to advise the President and Executive Branch agencies on ensuring that privacy and civil liberties are appropriately considered in their development and implementation. The Board is also directed by statute to, when appropriate, coordinate the activities of federal agency privacy and civil liberties officers on relevant interagency matters.
