In Committee

Summary

A voluntary national system for reporting and tracking artificial intelligence flaws.

Show full summary
  • AI developers and research institutions would gain infrastructure and funding options because NIST could build the national database or fund eligible entities such as institutions of higher education and research institutions to create and maintain it.
  • Operators, vendors, and auditors would get common definitions, taxonomies, technical standards, severity measures, detection methods, and standardized reporting and disclosure practices to help prioritize remediation and speed detection across sectors.
  • Policymakers, civil society, and the public would see coordinated guidance and a required report to Congress within three years summarizing multi‑stakeholder findings, the database design, and recommendations for voluntary information sharing and future updates.
