The United States National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the Department of Commerce are soliciting members for the newly established Artificial Intelligence (AI) Safety Institute Consortium, stated Cointelegraph.
Sources revealed that in a document published to the Federal Registry on November 2, 2023, NIST announced the formation of the new AI consortium along with an official notice expressing the office’s request for applicants with the relevant credentials
“This notice is the initial step for NIST in collaborating with non-profit organisations, universities, other government agencies, and technology companies to address challenges associated with the development and deployment of AI,” NIST explained.
However, there still doesn’t appear to be an actual timeline for the implementation of laws governing AI development or deployment in the U.S. beyond legacy policies governing businesses and technology, Cointelegraph concluded.
