Mitre has submitted comments on the Office of Management and Budget’s draft memorandum on establishing new requirements for the adoption, use and management of artificial intelligence technologies.
Based on a cross-analysis of OMB’s posed questions, the Mitre Center for Data-Driven Policy has developed evidence-based, actionable recommendations for implementing the draft memo as a guide for advancing AI risk management practices across the federal government, the not-for-profit research organization said Friday.
Mitre recommended that OMB bridge the gap between the federal government and industry; overcome negative aspects of AI to ensure that agencies feel encouraged to adopt AI; facilitate collaboration and coordination between agencies; and clarify governance inputs and processes and differences in agency requirements.
Requirements outlined in the draft memo include designating a chief AI officer at each agency, establishing an AI governance body and applying context-specific risk mitigation measures for generative AI.
