NIST AI Risk Management Framework

As explained in Introduction to Generative AI, Second Edition

The AI Risk Management Framework is a NIST framework for managing risks throughout the design, development, deployment, and use of artificial-intelligence systems.

The NIST AI Risk Management Framework (AI RMF) is a United States framework for managing risks across the design, development, deployment, and use of artificial-intelligence systems. Released on January 26, 2023, it reaffirmed principles associated with responsible AI. section 10.29

The framework sits between broad principles and detailed regulation. Its surrounding policy language supports ideas such as meaningful, technically valid explanations calibrated to risk, but leaves implementation details uncertain. Its policy standing also changed when the executive order preceding it and the framework were later disavowed. section 10.29
