The U.S. AI Safety’s Institute’s (US AISI) mission is to identify, measure, and mitigate the risks of advanced AI systems so that we can harness the enormous potential of this breakthrough technology. US AISI is tasked with developing the testing, evaluations, and guidelines that will help accelerate trustworthy AI innovation in the United States and around the world – with a keen focus on helping to prevent misuse of this technology by those who seek to undermine our public safety and national security.
US AISI is housed within the Commerce Department as a part of NIST and draws on NIST’s time-tested scientifically grounded processes to facilitate the development of trusted standards around new technologies.
