DHS Has Taken Steps to Develop and Govern Artificial Intelligence, But More Action is Needed to Ensure Appropriate Use

Excerpt:  “The Department of Homeland Security has taken steps to develop guidance and establish oversight for artificial intelligence (AI) use, but more action is needed to ensure DHS governs and manages AI use appropriately. DHS issued AI-specific guidance, appointed a Chief AI Officer, and established multiple working groups and its AI Task Force to help guide the Department’s AI efforts. However, more action is needed to ensure DHS has appropriate governance for responsible and secure use of AI. Additionally, DHS established an AI strategy to guide enterprise-wide AI goals and objectives, but it did not effectively execute the strategy because it did not develop an implementation plan. Further, DHS did not have adequate governance processes to monitor AI compliance with privacy and civil rights and civil liberties requirements due to resource challenges.”
