Request for Comments on Advancing 

Governance, Innovation, and Risk 

Management for Agency Use of 

Artificial Intelligence Draft 

Memorandum 

AGENCY: Office of Management and 

Budget. 

ACTION: Notice of public comment 

period. 

SUMMARY: The Office of Management 

and Budget (OMB) is seeking public 

comment on a draft memorandum titled 

Advancing Governance, Innovation, and 

Risk Management for Agency Use of 

Artificial Intelligence (AI). As proposed, 

the memorandum would establish new 

agency requirements in areas of AI 

governance, innovation, and risk 

management, and would direct agencies 

to adopt specific minimum risk 

management practices for uses of AI that 

impact the rights and safety of the 

public. The full text of the draft 

memorandum is available for review at 

https://www.ai.gov/input and https:// 

www.regulations.gov. 

DATES: Written comments must be 

received on or before December 5, 2023. 

ADDRESSES: Please submit comments via 

https://www.regulations.gov, a Federal 

website that allows the public to find, 

review, and submit comments on 

documents that agencies have published 

in the Federal Register and that are 

open for comment. Simply type ‘‘OMB– 

2023–0020’’ in the search box, click 

‘‘Search,’’ click the ‘‘Comment’’ button 

underneath ‘‘Request for Comments on 

Advancing Governance, Innovation, and 

Risk Management for Agency Use of 

Artificial Intelligence Memorandum,’’

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Administration has undertaken 

numerous efforts to advance responsible 

AI innovation and secure protections for 

people’s rights and safety. This work 

spans targeted sector-specific initiatives, 

such as the Department of Health and 

Human Services’ proposed rule to 

protect patients from discriminatory 

algorithms in health care,i as well as 

more broadly applicable guidance from 

the Department of Justice and Equal 

Employment Opportunity Commission 

to help employers avoid AI-enabled 

disability discrimination in 

employment.ii Significant efforts have 

also yielded the development of 

landmark voluntary frameworks such as 

the National Institute of Standards and 

Technology’s (NIST) AI Risk 

Management Framework and White 

House Office of Science and Technology 

Policy’s Blueprint for an AI Bill of 

Rights. To build upon this body of 

policy, and in accord with President 

Biden’s Executive Order of October 30, 

2023 (Safe, Secure, and Trustworthy 

Development and Use of Artificial 

Intelligence), OMB has prepared a draft 

memorandum that would direct Federal 

agencies to strengthen their AI 

governance and innovation programs 

while managing risks from the use of AI, 

particularly when that use affects the 

safety and rights of the public. This 

memorandum also would carry out 

provisions of the AI in Government Act 

of 2020, secs. 101–104, Div. U, Public 

Law 116–260, and the Advancing 

American AI Act, secs. 7221–7228, 

Public Law 117–263. 

Requests for Comment 

Through this Request for Comment, 

OMB hopes to gather information on the 

questions posed below. However, this 

list is not intended to limit the scope of 

topics that may be addressed. 

Commenters are invited to provide 

feedback on any topic believed to have 

implications for the content or 

implementation of the proposed 

memorandum. 

When responding to one or more of 

the questions below, please note in the 

text of your response the number of the 

question to which you are responding. 

Commenters should include a page 

number on each page of their 

submissions. Commenters are not 

required to respond to all questions. 

OMB is requesting feedback related to 

the following: 

1. The composition of Federal 

agencies varies significantly in ways 

that will shape the way they approach 

governance. An overarching Federal 

policy must account for differences in 

an agency’s size, organization, budget, 

mission, organic AI talent, and more. 

Are the roles, responsibilities, seniority, 

position, and reporting structures 

outlined for Chief AI Officers 

sufficiently flexible and achievable for 

the breadth of covered agencies? 

2. What types of coordination 

mechanisms, either in the public or 

private sector, would be particularly 

effective for agencies to model in their 

establishment of an AI Governance 

Body? What are the benefits or 

drawbacks to having agencies 

establishing a new body to perform AI 

governance versus updating the scope of 

an existing group (for example, agency 

bodies focused on privacy, IT, or data)? 

3. How can OMB best advance 

responsible AI innovation? 

4. With adequate safeguards in place, 

how should agencies take advantage of 

generative AI to improve agency 

missions or business operations? 

5. Are there use cases for presumed 

safety-impacting and rights-impacting 

AI (Section 5 (b)) that should be 

included, removed, or revised? If so, 

why? 

6. Do the minimum practices 

identified for safety-impacting and 

rights-impacting AI set an appropriate 

baseline that is applicable across all 

agencies and all such uses of AI? How 


lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1
75626 Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 212 / Friday, November 3, 2023 / Notices 

can the minimum practices be 

improved, recognizing that agencies will 

need to apply context-specific risk 

mitigations in addition to what is listed? 

7. What types of materials or 

resources would be most valuable to 

help agencies, as appropriate, 

incorporate the requirements and 

recommendations of this memorandum 

into relevant contracts? 

8. What kind of information should be 

made public about agencies’ use of AI 

in their annual use case inventory?

U.S. Federal Chief Information Officer, Office 

of the Federal Chief Information Officer, 

Office of Management Budget.
