It advises the Dutch government and Parliament on long-term strategic issues that are of great importance to society. The wrr provides science-based advice aimed at opening up new perspectives and directions, changing problem definitions, setting new policy goals, investigating new resources for problemsolving, and enriching the public debate.  \nThe studies ofthe wrr do not focus on one particular policy area, but on crosscutting issues that affect future policy-making in multiple domains. A long-term perspective complements day-to-day policy-making, which often concentrates on the issues that dominate today’s policy agenda.  \nThe wrr consists ofa Council and an academic staff who work together closely in multidisciplinary project teams. Council members are appointed by the Crown, and hold academic chairs at universities, currently infields as diverse as economics, sociology, law, public administration and governance, health, and water management. The wrr determines its own work programme, as well as the content of its publications. All its work is externally reviewed before publication.  \nThe council’s current term of office runs until 31 December 2022.  \nIt is composed of the following members:  \nProfessor C.C.J.H. (Catrien) Bijleveld, Professor A.W.A. (Arnoud) Boot, Professor M.A.P. (Mark) Bovens, Professor G.B.M. (Godfried) Engbersen, Professor S.J.M.H. (Suzanne) Hulscher, Professor J.E.J. (Corien) Prins (chairperson), Professor M. (Marianne) de Visser, Professor C.G. (Casper) de Vries,  \nSecretary: Professor F.W.A.

Advances in the fundamental science of ai have led to an increase in the number of patents and, in turn, emergent interest from businesses and governments. The technology has also captured the public’s imagination.  \n– ai is now being used throughout the economy and society at large, affecting the daily lives of citizens in manifold ways. Therefore, the objective for societal actors, particularly governments, is to develop ways to adequately embed ai in society. To achieve this, we need to understand precisely what type of technology ai is.  \n– Like what have been called general-purpose technologies, ai is characterized by pervasiveness, continual improvement and innovational complementarities. However, the wrr has coined the term ‘system technology’for ai in an effort to emphasize the systemic nature of its impact on society. Other examples of system technologies are the steam engine, electricity, the combustion engine and the computer.  \n– Embedding system technologies within society entails five overarching tasks:","cbCaivyWsfldzLK4","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaivyWsfldzLK4","pdf",2223634,62,"English","# Executive summary\n## AI embedding: why it matters\n## System technology framing\n## Five overarching tasks\n## Government recommendations","[{\"question\":\"What is the WRR’s role in Dutch policy-making?\",\"answer\":\"The WRR is an independent strategic advisory body that provides science-based advice to the Dutch government and Parliament on long-term strategic issues important to society.\"},{\"question\":\"Why does the report call AI a “system technology”?\",\"answer\":\"It emphasizes AI’s systemic impact, characterized by pervasiveness, continual improvement, and innovational complementarities across society.\"},{\"question\":\"What are the five overarching tasks for embedding AI in society?\",\"answer\":\"They are demystification, contextualization, engagement, regulation, and positioning, each supporting responsible integration into social and political life.\"}]","Opgave ai - The New System Technology - Mission ai | PDF",156]
