Review

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is playing a pivotal role in developing and coordinating AI standards across government and international bodies. Their approach emphasizes collaborative, open development of technical standards that promote innovation while ensuring responsible AI deployment through comprehensive risk management frameworks.
