AI Use and Procurement

The US government has introduced a significant policy overhaul to modernize the use and procurement of artificial intelligence (AI) across federal agencies. Through two new memoranda released by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), the administration aims to drive responsible AI adoption, streamline acquisition processes and reinforce America’s global leadership in the AI sector. These policy updates represent a shift in tone and substance from previous approaches, aligning federal operations more closely with technological innovation and strategic competitiveness.
