Rapporto Brookings del febbraio 2021, ma l'ho notato solo adesso

A proposito: se qualcuno vuole farsi un'idea concreta di che cosa
ha prodotto
l'OTA nei suoi circa 20 anni di esistenza può dare un'occhiata
a questo elenco:

It is time to restore the US Office of Technology Assessment
Darrell M. West
Wednesday, February 10, 2021
SUMMARY
The past several decades have seen digital technologies
revolutionize a number of different sectors. Advances such as
artificial intelligence, machine learning, and mobile technology
have reshaped the landscape and provided new ways of analyzing
information, handling communications, and undertaking financial
transactions. Yet 25 years ago, just as the digital era was
unfolding, Congress terminated the Office of Technology Assessment
(OTA) that provided legislators with research on new developments
and recommendations for dealing with digital problems. At a time
when Americans are worried about privacy, security, fairness,
transparency, and human safety, it is time to bring back the OTA
so that members have the latest advice on how to deal with these
issues.
