Framework for State, Local, Tribal, and Territorial Use of Artificial Intelligence for Public Benefit Administration
This framework outlines USDA’s principles and approach to support States, localities, Tribes, and territories in responsibly using AI in the implementation and administration of USDA’s nutrition benefits and services. This framework is in response to Section 7.2(b)(ii) of Executive Order 14110 on Safe, Secure, and Trustworthy Development and Use of Artificial Intelligence.
The USDA’s 2024 framework offers principles and guidance for the responsible use of artificial intelligence in federal nutrition benefit programs, focusing on protecting rights, safety, and equity.
It sets requirements for transparency, human oversight, bias mitigation, opt-out options, and accountability, categorizes AI uses by risk, and promotes responsible innovation and ongoing monitoring while aligning with federal AI policies.
