One concept worth separating here is the difference between a regulator convening a forum and a regulator issuing binding guidance. A forum signals that a topic is on the agenda, but it does not itself create new compliance duties, so it's useful to read the agenda and panelist list in the press release before assuming where rules might land. On your second question, I'm unsure how fast rulemaking will track AI development; historically, rulemaking has tended to lag new technology, but I'd want to look at prior CFTC examples before saying more. What part of the agenda would you want to check first?
