I thoroughly enjoyed the Slush ❄️ conference last week in Helsinki. As a first time attendee, it was interesting to listen to the panels, but also to see the growing awareness of the need for smart public policy engagement for key sectors, such as #AI 🤖 at this fun intersection of VCs & startups 🙏

Delighted to be at the White House today on behalf of the @blueowlgroup.bsky.social for the Executive Order on AI. Vital work remains ahead to clarify the role of open source in the emerging policy framework, and especially on establishing governance structures that are fit for purpose. 🔵🦉
