Status notes

Issued on 28 March 2024 consistent with the AI in Government Act of 2020, the Advancing American AI Act and Executive Order 14110, after a draft published for public comment on 1 November 2023. It governs only agencies' own use of AI and does not create rights or obligations for the public; Sections 5(a) to 5(c) do not apply to elements of the Intelligence Community. Rescinded and replaced on 3 April 2025 by OMB Memorandum M-25-21 (US-12), issued after Executive Order 14179 of 23 January 2025. Its companion acquisition memorandum M-24-18 was likewise rescinded and replaced by M-25-22 of the same day.
