The bureau will develop a national AI development and regulation strategy; lead research and development activities to promote the advancement of AI technology, develop a framework of governance over the introduction of [AI]-powered systems; create rules and regulations to prevent the displacement of workers due to AI "while ensuring that the country benefits from the positive consequences of such technological advancements."
