Panel Discussion: Artificial Intelligence Meets Real Diplomacy

Panel Discussion: Artificial Intelligence Meets Real Diplomacy

Video

Artificial Intelligence

In this panel, Heather Nauert moderates a candid conversation with Ron Ash, Joseph Larson, Brandon Remington, and James Roscoe on what it will take for the United States and its allies to win the global AI race—and set the standards that shape the digital future. The discussion explores how government and industry can move faster together, promote “buy American” AI abroad, and avoid the Huawei-era trap of warning allies without offering trusted alternatives. From workforce adoption and interoperability to smarter regulation and practical export promotion, the panel lays out a roadmap for building a trusted, democratic AI ecosystem that scales across allied nations.

Panel Participants:

  • Ron Ash — CEO and Chairman of the Board, Accenture Federal Services

  • Joseph Larson — Vice President of Government, OpenAI

  • Brandon Remington — Deputy Under Secretary for Policy, U.S. Department of Commerce, International Trade Administration

  • James Roscoe — Chargé d’Affaires, British Embassy

  • Moderator: Heather Nauert — Broadcast journalist; Former Spokesperson, U.S. Department of State

Michelle Giuda on Bloomberg: Leading in AI Can't Be a Two-City Story

Michelle Giuda joined Bloomberg Tech to discuss what it will take for the United States to lead in artificial intelligence.


While growing coordination between Silicon Valley and Washington is an important step forward, Giuda noted that leadership in AI cannot be limited to those two centers.


“To lead in AI, this can’t be a two-city story,” she said. “It has to include every American in between — and the allies we need to win with.”


As AI continues to evolve, leadership will depend not only on innovation, but on adoption, scale, and collaboration across borders.
