SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Board seeks public comments regarding
topics it should explore in both its public forum and future oversight
regarding the role of artificial intelligence in the federal
government's counterterrorism efforts.
In both the forum and public comments, the Board seeks to cover
questions including but not limited to the following: How is the
federal government using AI in current efforts to combat terrorism and
protect national security? How can or should AI be used for targeting,
behavioral profiling, signals analysis, intelligence analysis, and
prediction? What should effective performance metrics look like for the
use of AI by the Intelligence Community (IC)? What standards does the
IC use in evaluating whether IC tools are ready to deploy in
operational contexts? Are those the right standards? What new threats
are created by AI's use by adversaries or malicious actors? What
privacy or civil liberties risks does the use of AI exacerbate? How
might bias, non-transparency, or unreliability in AI systems harm
individuals? How can that harm be detected or mitigated? What recourse
do people or agencies have if AI malfunctions or is otherwise proven
unreliable? Can IC analysts ever be sure that AI augmented analysis is
correct?
PCLOB invites input from all stakeholders including members of the
public, representing a variety of backgrounds and perspectives. If a
comment is submitted on behalf of an organization, the individual
respondent's role in the organization may also be provided on a
voluntary basis.
Alan Silverleib,
PCLOB Legislative and Public Affairs Officer.
