Artificial Intelligence: Key Practices to Help Ensure Accountability in Federal Use |
---|
Artificial intelligence is a rapidly evolving technology that presents operational and workforce challenges for the federal government.
We testified on our key practices for the responsible use of AI in federal agencies. The practices are organized around four principles—governance, data, performance, and monitoring. For example, "monitoring" calls for agencies to ensure AI systems remain reliable and relevant over time.
Also, there is a severe shortage of federal staff with AI expertise. We previously reported on experts' opinions about establishing a new digital services academy—similar to the military academies—to train future workers.
