· Use Wisely and Properly

Users of AI systems should have the necessary knowledge and ability to make the system operate according to its design, and have sufficient understanding of the potential impacts to avoid possible misuse and abuse, so as to maximize its benefits and minimize the risks.

· Deploy and Monitor:

1 Monitoring the robustness of the AI system should be adopted and undertaken in a periodic and continuous manner to measure and assess any risks related to the technicalities of the AI system (an inward perspective) as well as the magnitude of the risk posed by the system and its capabilities (an outward perspective). 2 The model must also be monitored in a periodic and continuous manner to verify whether its operations and functions are compatible with the designed structure and frameworks. The AI system must also be safe to prevent destructive use to exploit its data and results to harm entities, individuals, or groups. It is necessary to continuously work on implementation and development to ensure system reliability.

8. Public Safety Obligation.

Institutions must assess the public safety risks that arise from the deployment of AI systems that direct or control physical devices, and implement safety controls. [Explanatory Memorandum] The Public Safety Obligation recognizes that AI systems control devices in the physical world. For this reason, institutions must both assess risks and take precautionary measures as appropriate.

4. Risk Assessment and Management

Regulatory and non regulatory approaches to AI should be based on a consistent application of risk assessment and risk management across various agencies and various technologies. It is not necessary to mitigate every foreseeable risk; in fact, a foundational principle of regulatory policy is that all activities involve tradeoffs. Instead, a risk based approach should be used to determine which risks are acceptable and which risks present the possibility of unacceptable harm, or harm that has expected costs greater than expected benefits. Agencies should be transparent about their evaluations of risk and re evaluate their assumptions and conclusions at appropriate intervals so as to foster accountability. Correspondingly, the magnitude and nature of the consequences should an AI tool fail, or for that matter succeed, can help inform the level and type of regulatory effort that is appropriate to identify and mitigate risks. Specifically, agencies should follow the direction in Executive Order 12866, “Regulatory Planning and Review,”to consider the degree and nature of the risks posed by various activities within their jurisdiction. Such an approach will, where appropriate, avoid hazard based and unnecessarily precautionary approaches to regulation that could unjustifiably inhibit innovation.
