Practical AI Risk Management: Mapping AI Risk in Election Offices
The second in a series of conversations using the NIST AI Risk Management Framework (AI RMF)
Join us at 1 p.m. ET on Friday, April 3, via Zoom for a conversation on artificial intelligence tailored for election practitioners and administrators. Using the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) AI Risk Management Framework (AI RMF) as our guide, we will focus specifically on the Map phase.
Most AI frameworks start with governance — this session puts that structure to work. The Map function is about understanding your context: identifying where AI is being used, what risks it introduces, and who might be affected.
Where is AI showing up? How to take stock of the AI tools already in use across your office, even ones you may not have formally approved.
What could go wrong? A practical approach to identifying and categorizing the risks specific to your workflows and the communities you serve.
Who is affected? Thinking beyond your office to understand how AI decisions can impact voters, staff, and election integrity.
This is a grounded, jargon-free conversation about knowing your environment before making decisions. We’re building the map so you know what terrain you’re navigating.
This is the second of a four-part series breaking down the NIST AI RMF: Govern, Map, Measure, and Manage.
