Artificial intelligence review of federal rules

This bill would require OMB, with NIST, to set up an artificial intelligence system to find redundant or outdated federal regulations. The system would start within 90 days of enactment and run every year. NIST would set standards for accuracy, transparency, accountability, and national security risk. OMB and NIST would review the process at least once per fiscal year. When the AI flags a rule, the agency that made it would get 30 days to decide and must publish a short explanation online. Agencies could send a classified annex to Congress if needed. If a rule is found redundant, the agency would have 30 days to remove it. If found outdated, the agency would have 30 days to amend or remove it. The bill would let agencies skip normal notice-and-comment rulemaking for these actions.
