With the risk of dismantling federal law enforcement agencies, former director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and FTC commissioner Rohit Chopra will join us to discuss the future of policing Silicon Valley and Wall Street, particularly when it comes to risks posed by artificial intelligence and personalized pricing. He will share how state governments will play a larger role in setting the rules of the road on privacy, antitrust, and consumer protection.

Refreshments will be served.
