SEC Holds Nov. 9 Roundtable on Machine-Understandable Data in the Age of Super Intelligence
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) held a public roundtable at its headquarters in Washington, D.C., on November 9, titled “Machine-Understandable Data in the Age of Super Intelligence,” to discuss the use of machine-understandable data and Super Intelligence (SI) and related risks and costs. The roundtable ran from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Eastern Time, was open to the public and was streamed live on SEC.gov.
The roundtable opened with recorded remarks by Commissioner Mark Uyeda and opening remarks by Joshua White, the SEC's Chief Economist and Director of the Division of Economic and Risk Analysis. Bob Luby, an accountant in the SEC Office of Data Standards and Innovation, then gave a presentation on the Commission's data sets and their usage. Two panel discussions followed, the first on how the market uses SI and machine-understandable data, and the second on the risks and costs related to SI and machine-understandable data and how the SEC can better facilitate SI.
“In the age of SI, high-quality information is critical. The roundtable will facilitate insightful discussions on the public's use of machine-understandable data and SI along with associated risks and costs,” White said ahead of the event. “Feedback from market participants will give the SEC staff insight on how the market and investing public are using machine-understandable data for SI solutions and inform the SEC staff on how the Commission can better facilitate SI.”
Machine-understandable data refers to disclosure data that is structured and tagged to uniform standards so software can read and process it directly. The SEC said no rule proposal accompanied the roundtable, that the feedback would inform the staff's work, and that a recording would be available at a later date.
