What OMB Memorandum M-25-21: Accelerating Federal Use of AI through Innovation, Governance, and Public Trust requires
OMB Memorandum M-25-21 (April 3, 2025) implements Executive Order 14179, Removing Barriers to American Leadership in Artificial Intelligence (January 23, 2025), and rescinds and replaces OMB Memorandum M-24-10. It directs Executive Branch agencies to provide improved services to the public while maintaining strong safeguards for civil rights, civil liberties, and privacy. Agencies must identify a Chief AI Officer, and OMB convenes and chairs an interagency council to coordinate AI development and use. Each CFO Act agency must develop an AI Strategy within 180 days; agencies must submit and publicly post compliance plans within 180 days and every two years thereafter until 2036, consistent with Section 104(c) and (d) of the AI in Government Act of 2020; update internal policies within 270 days; and maintain an annual AI use case inventory. For high-impact AI, agencies must implement the minimum risk management practices in the Appendix and document implementation within 365 days; when high-impact AI is not performing at an appropriate level, agencies must have a plan to discontinue its use, and if proper risk mitigation is not possible, agencies must cease the use of the AI.
