The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Health Canada, and the UK's Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) have jointly identified ten guiding principles that can inform the development of Good Machine Learning Practice (GMLP). These guiding principles are intended to help promote safe, effective and high-quality medical devices that use artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML). There is a great deal of interest with these technologies in the medical field, especially with the design and operation of medical devices. This is to the extent that regulatory guidance is required and the opportunity has arisen for a transatlantic protocol to be fashioned between three national regulatory agencies. Artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies have the potential to transform healthcare.

In order to continue our impressive track record in setting global technological standards, it is important we ensure American small and medium-sized businesses have a seat at the table. Many of most remarkable AI technological breakthroughs are being developed by smaller innovators who simply do not have the financial resources of a CCP-backed megacorporation. Accordingly, we are proud to have introduced the Leadership in Global Tech Standards Act of 2021, legislation that would provide small businesses throughout the country with the financial backing they need to participate in setting global AI standards.

Federal standards for artificial intelligence must be strict enough to prevent the tech from harming humans, yet flexible enough to encourage innovation and get the tech industry on board, according to the National Institute of Standards and Technology. However, without better standards for measuring the performance and trustworthiness of AI tools, officials said, the government could have a tough time striking that balance. On Monday, NIST released its much-anticipated guidance on how the government should approach developing technical and ethical standards for artificial intelligence. Though it doesn't include any specific regulations or policies, the plan outlines multiple initiatives that would help the government promote the responsible use of AI and lists a number of high-level principles that should inform any future standards for the tech. The strategy also stresses the need to develop technologies that would help agencies better study and assess the quality of AI-powered systems.
