Implementing risk assessments for high-risk AI systems
Guidance on how state agencies should identify, assess, and manage risks associated with deploying high-risk generative AI systems under Executive Order 24-01.
This December 2024 report from WaTech provides a comprehensive framework for implementing AI risk assessments aligned with Washington State’s Responsible AI Principles and the NIST AI Risk Management Framework.
It defines what constitutes a “high-risk AI system,” outlines processes for identifying and evaluating such systems, and describes how to integrate AI risk management into existing privacy and security workflows. The guidance helps agencies balance innovation with accountability by detailing governance structures, lifecycle risk identification methods, and mitigation strategies to ensure safe, equitable, and transparent AI deployment across state operations.
