A White House executive order on AI announced in October calls on the US to develop new standards for stress-testing AI systems to uncover their biases, hidden threats, and rogue tendencies. But the agency tasked with setting these standards, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), lacks the budget needed to complete that work independently by the July 26, 2024, deadline, according to several people with knowledge of the work.
so... good news then?

This is what Ai researchers are already working on anyways! A mcdonalds Ai needs to not be racist, for example. Mcdomalds would have a shit product, bad press and an embarrassing lawsuit, perhaps.
Ai is an infant. We will figure this out and we dont need the government to baby step us thru it!
