About this episode

One of government's newest oversight tools isn't an audit or an investigation. It's a contract clause. The latest version of GSA's artificial intelligence acquisition requirements took effect Monday after months of revisions and industry pushback. We'll talk about what changed, what didn't, and what the final version says about government's ability to manage rapidly evolving technology with Emily Murphy, Senior Fellow at the George Mason University Baroni Center for Government Contracting.
