The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) announced the appointment of an officer overseeing the use of artificial intelligence (AI), becoming the latest agency to create the role called for in a President Joe Biden executive order.
Sivaram Ghorakavi was named the agency’s deputy chief information officer and will also serve as chief AI officer, the EEOC announced Monday. In his latter role, he will coordinate intradepartmental and cross-agency efforts on AI and adjacent issues.
As information chief, Ghorakavi will lead EEOC innovations in technology that benefit the agency’s strategic mission.
