Show full summary
- AI developers and companies would have a structured, modular template covering items like model name, developer identification, release date, training-data knowledge cutoff, languages supported, and terms of service so documentation can be tailored to each use case.
- NIST would publish a draft in the Federal Register with at least 60 days for public comment, and within 12 months of starting the pilot it would report to the House Science, Space, and Technology Committee and the Senate Commerce, Science, and Transportation Committee and post the template and guidelines on the NIST website.
- The pilot must seek input from institutions of higher education, nonprofit organizations, international standards bodies, industry, and Federal agencies to shape metrics, benchmarks, and voluntary best practices.

NIST pilot for AI documentation
This bill would direct NIST to start a pilot to create a standard, modular template for documenting AI models. The template would include model name, developer identity, and developer incorporation location. It would also include release date, the training-data knowledge cutoff, languages supported, and terms of service. NIST would write technical guidelines with metrics and draw on voluntary consensus standards and industry best practices. NIST would consult companies, universities, nonprofits, standards groups, and other agencies. It would publish a draft in the Federal Register and allow at least 60 days for public comment. Within 12 months of starting the pilot, NIST would report to two congressional committees on the pilot's effectiveness. If the pilot is effective, NIST would include a plan for permanent implementation and administration. The pilot would depend on Congress providing appropriations.
