Med Tech Creating Opportunity in Warsaw

I recently visited Zimmer Biomet in Warsaw to discuss the state of medical technology and the exciting future ahead in Warsaw. Medical technology is advancing at a rapid pace and creating impressive opportunities in Northern Indiana.

Bipartisan Bill to Expand Access to Artificial Intelligence Research

Recent major leaps in artificial intelligence (AI) provide great promise, but also have caused some to highlight potential risks to society. The United States cannot cede leadership in AI development, and we must harness the great potential the technology offers in order to reap its benefits and combat any potential risks.

To help meet this goal, I recently joined with a bipartisan group of senators to introduce the CREATE AI Act. This bipartisan legislation would establish the National Artificial Intelligence Research Resource (NAIRR) as a shared national research infrastructure to provide AI researchers and students with greater access to the complex resources, data, and tools needed to develop safe and trustworthy artificial intelligence.

The CREATE AI Act would help democratize AI safety research and serve as a testbed for the development and implementation of innovative AI practices.

Happy 200th Birthday, Oliver Morton!

We recently marked Oliver Morton’s 200th birthday. Morton served as the 14th Governor of Indiana, and his leadership helped preserve the Union during the Civil War. Morton later represented Indiana in the United States Senate.

Senator Mike Braun (R-Ind.) and I introduced a resolution to honor Morton’s life, and his statue represents Indiana in the National Statuary Hall Collection. Read our resolution here.
