Generative AI: Promise and Peril White Paper

ATARC AI & Data Policy Working Group | October 2024

GenAI is now poised to impact every aspect of federal agencies’ operations, from providing “chat bot” services for citizens accessing agency web sites, to informing the determination of citizens’ benefits, to supporting the ongoing analysis of agency data and influencing operational decision making, and beyond. Given this, deliberation and care must be taken when planning for the use of GenAI and crafting the policies that will govern it. This paper aims to situate itself as an asset for those deliberations.
