Government By Algorithm: Artificial Intelligence In Federal Administrative Agencies
Little is known about how agencies are currently using AI systems, and little attention has been devoted to how agencies acquire such tools or oversee their use.
The report commissioned by the Administrative Conference of the United States offers the first comprehensive analysis of federal agencies’ use of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in governance.
It reveals that nearly half of major agencies have experimented with AI/ML for tasks like regulatory enforcement, adjudication, risk monitoring, and public engagement, while also addressing challenges such as technical limitations, accountability, bias, and public trust, and providing recommendations for responsible AI adoption.
