The Department of Homeland Security has released new guardrails for its use of artificial intelligence in carrying out its missions, including securing the border.
Mayorkas writes in the AI policy memo, expected to be released later Thursday, that the US must ensure AI is"rigorously tested to be effective [and] safeguards privacy, civil rights, and civil liberties while avoiding inappropriate biases."
DHS says it has appointed Chief Information Officer Eric Hysen as the Department’s first Chief AI Officer. Hysen, who was set to appear before Congress Thursday, will promote AI innovation and safety within the Department, DHS said. "I think the potential for unintended harm from the use of AI exists in any federal agency and in any use of AI," Hysten said."We interact with more people on a daily basis than any other federal agency.
As part of the new policy, Americans are able to decline the use of facial recognition technology in a variety of situations, including during air travel check-ins.
