DESCRIPTION:**Abstract:** \nAs LLMs become part of products used daily by 
 millions of people\, it is increasingly urgent to ensure that these models
  are developed and operate responsibly. In this talk\, I will share my jou
 rney in Responsible AI (RAI)\, from my early work in automated fact verifi
 cation to the development of the Amazon Nova family of foundational models
  and my new role in the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO)\, the UK's
  data protection regulator. I will share some examples of RAI research tha
 t I and my former team have done\, including the largest RAI benchmark for
  video foundation models\, and a linguistically-inspired text-to-text LLM 
 watermarking method. I will also talk about the role regulatory agencies l
 ike the ICO play in the extremely fast-paced world of post-ChatGPT AI. Fin
 ally\, I am going to discuss how RAI is practiced in an industry setting a
 nd how it is influenced by and sometimes informs AI regulations.\n\n**Bio:
