An Accountability Framework for Federal Agencies and Other Entities
This framework provides a structured approach for ensuring responsible and transparent use of AI systems across government, emphasizing governance, data integrity, performance evaluation, and continuous monitoring.
This framework helps federal, state, and local agencies manage AI accountability through four guiding principles: governance, data, performance, and monitoring.
It offers practical checklists and audit procedures for agencies and third-party assessors to evaluate AI systems for compliance, fairness, and reliability, drawing on insights from GAO’s Comptroller General Forum on AI oversight. The report highlights the need for independent verification of AI systems to ensure they align with ethical standards, minimize bias, and maintain transparency throughout their lifecycle
