The US government will develop artificial intelligence standards and guidelines
The Biden administration announced on December 19th that it is taking the first step in writing key standards and guidelines for the secure deployment of generative artificial intelligence and how to test and protect systems.
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) of the US Department of Commerce has announced that it will seek public opinion before February 2nd to conduct critical tests crucial to ensuring the security of artificial intelligence systems. US Commerce Secretary Raymond stated that this effort was driven by Biden's executive order on artificial intelligence in October, aimed at developing "industry standards around AI security, security, and trust, so that the US can continue to lead the world in responsible development and use of this rapidly developing technology."
NIST is developing guidelines for evaluating artificial intelligence, promoting the development of standards, and providing a testing environment for evaluating artificial intelligence systems. This request seeks opinions from AI companies and the public on generative AI risk management and reducing the risk of AI generating erroneous information.
Previously, executives from multiple technology companies, including Tesla CEO Musk, called for the establishment of artificial intelligence regulatory frameworks to prevent potential risks to human civilization. The artificial intelligence executive order signed by Biden in October covers a wide range of aspects, including establishing new standards for artificial intelligence security, protecting the privacy of the American people, promoting equality and civil rights, protecting consumers and workers, promoting innovation and competition, and ensuring that the United States is at the forefront of the global artificial intelligence competition.
This administrative order also cites the US Defense Production Act, which requires technology companies to inform the US government when developing any artificial intelligence systems that may pose a threat to US national security, economic security, or public health security.
