INFORMS Open Forum

 I am writing to make sure you are aware of an opportunity for INFORMS members to join NIST's Public Working Group on AI.

I imagine this will be a large / open group, with no real credentials required to join the group.  You may want to join this group and/or invite other INFORMS members to do the same. The deadline for joining is July 9. The sign-up form can be found at https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdbEDFgGfLTnmGjMqM95wzvhPWUlN6rGdb-hv1VWm4QIq_r9w/viewform

Please feel free to share with your various committees.

Initially, the working group is going to serve as a forum to provide input on guidance that describes how the NIST AI Risk Management Profile (AI RMF) may be used to support development of generative AI technologies. In the mid-term, the working group will then support NIST's work on testing, evaluation and measurement related to generative AI. Longer term, the group will then explore specific opportunities to increase the likelihood that powerful generative AI technologies are productively used to address top challenges of our time in areas such as health, the environment and climate change.
