"Biden-Harris Administration Announces New NIST Public Working Group on AI"

The US Secretary of Commerce, Gina Raimondo, recently announced that the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) will launch a new public working group on Artificial Intelligence (AI) that will build on the success of the NIST AI Risk Management Framework (AI RMF) in addressing this rapidly developing technology. The Public Working Group on Generative AI will help address the opportunities and challenges associated with AI capable of generating code, text, images, videos, and other content. The public working group will also help NIST in the development of essential guidance to aid organizations in addressing the unique risks posed by generative AI technologies. NIST has outlined the working group's short-term, mid-term, and long-term objectives. Initially, it will function as a means for soliciting feedback on guidance describing how the NIST AI RMF can be used to support the development of generative AI technologies. This form of guidance, known as a profile, will support and encourage using the AI RMF to address associated risks. This article continues to discuss the new public working group on AI.
