Data Task Force pauses vote on revised AI guidelines after legal, data-protection concerns

The Data Task Force reviewed a substantially revised AI guideline that expands risk tiers, clarifies human oversight and data-protection expectations, and removes references to specific vendors. The chair said the new document shifts from vendor lists to use-case-based risk assessments and aligns disclosure and transparency sections with accepted frameworks. "We significantly updated our AI guideline since last year," the chair said, noting the document now addresses trustworthiness, bias mitigation, data privacy and explainability.
