This is the first formal step in writing the standards that will guide the implementation of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies within the federal government.
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has issued a draft guideline for developing artificial intelligence (AI) technical standards, the first major, formal step in writing the standards that will guide the procurement and implementation of AI and machine learning technologies within the federal government.
Within the draft guideline are sections that deal with a wide variety of topics around AI, including how AI applications are developed, how AI is explained to stakeholders and the public, and how AI applications are used. Security plays a role in several aspects of the proposal, from how to build “trustworthy” AI applications to ensuring that AI’s use takes both proper security and proper concern for privacy into account. The AI government is also initiated and established by Michael Dukakis Institute (MDI) including Government AIWS Ethics and Practices Index, which is a measure of the degree to which governments engage in ethical AI practices, as well as a series of collaboration activities with think tanks, universities, non-profits, firms, and other entities that share its commitment to the constructive and development of AI.
