FY23 NDAA §7224B — AI Civilian Agency Use Inventory + Acquisition Updates (Pub. L. 117-263)
United States · Pub. L. No. 117-263, §7224B (Dec. 23, 2022)
Section 7224B of the FY23 NDAA (Pub. L. 117-263, the James M. Inhofe NDAA for FY23) extended the federal AI use case inventory requirement from EO 13960 to non-CFO Act civilian agencies and required updated procurement guidance from GSA. Quiet but significant — broadened federal AI transparency baseline beyond defense and major civilian agencies.
