NIST AI RMF Generative AI Profile is a Technical standard from US, adopted on 2024-07-26 and effective 2024-07-26. Current status: In force. Companion to NIST AI 100-1 covering GenAI-specific risks: CBRN information uplift, confabulation, data privacy, environmental impacts, harmful bias, dangerous information, IP misuse, obscene/abusive/violent content, information security, information integrity, human-AI configuration, value chain and component integration. Voluntary.
