A reply thread argues that FAccT papers have had real policy impact, even if many conference papers do not.
- The commenter points to NIST's RMF, GAO's AI accountability framework, NTIA's accountability report, FTC memos, and DOJ settlements as examples of frameworks that cite FAccT work.
- The broader point is that a conference can matter to policy even if the effect is uneven and hard to measure.
