its First-Ever Enterprise Artificial Intelligence Strategy

THE DEPARTMENT OF STATE UNVEILS ITS FIRST-EVER ENTERPRISE ARTIFICIAL
INTELLIGENCE STRATEGY

Fact Sheet

Office of the Spokesperson

November 9, 2023




The Department of State released its first-ever “Enterprise Artificial
Intelligence Strategy FY 2024-2025:  Empowering Diplomacy through Responsible
A I” (EAIS) on November 9, 2023. Signed by Secretary Blinken, the EAIS
establishes a centralized vision for artificial intelligence (AI) innovation,
infrastructure, policy, governance, and culture by inaugurating Department-wide
guidance for the responsible and ethical design, development, acquisition, and
appropriate application of AI.

The Department of State stands at a critical juncture where an emerging
ecosystem of AI capabilities presents enormous opportunity.  This opportunity
can allow the Department to leverage AI to achieve breakthroughs of all kinds –
in public diplomacy, language translation, management operations, information
proliferation and dissemination, task automation, code generation, and others.
 However, this opportunity will require the Department to take steps to ensure
ethical and responsible use.  This includes steps to protect the security and
privacy of Department data and to avert biased outcomes that pose a risk to our
mission and our values.

Guided by the Office of Management Strategy & Solutions’ Center for Analytics,
the Fiscal Year 2024 through Fiscal Year 2025 EAIS is the product of the State
Department’s AI leaders and policy experts from over 25 bureaus and offices
across the enterprise, dedicated to ensuring that our adoption of AI is worthy
of the Department’s excellence in diplomacy and foreign policy.

In support of the Executive Order on the Safe, Secure, and Trustworthy
Development and Use of AI , the EAIS centers on the vision statement, “The
Department of State will responsibly and securely harness the full capabilities
of trustworthy artificial intelligence to advance United States diplomacy and
shape the future of statecraft.”

To guide the Department towards its vision, four goals serve as foundational
targets that will enhance the Department’s AI capabilities: (1) Leverage Secure
AI Infrastructure (2) Foster a Culture that Embraces AI Technology (3) Ensure AI
is Applied Responsibly (4) Innovate.  Each Goal rests on specific objectives
that encompass priorities identified by the Department’s AI leaders.  These
relevant and achievable efforts will enable measurable advancement over the next
two years.

Enhancing the use of AI throughout the Department requires broad coordination,
leadership and working level alignment, financial and technical support, a
trained workforce, a process for thorough and efficient legal and policy review,
and a shift in the Department’s data and AI culture to create the sustainable
change outlined in the strategy.

The implementation of the EAIS builds on the success of the Department’s
Enterprise Data Strategy and its associated data campaigns.  The Department’s
EDS Data Campaign approach is a proven force multiplier in maturing the
organization’s data capabilities and will likewise be used for EAIS
implementation.  Bringing together key experts and stakeholders from multiple
bureaus, offices, and posts, the campaign mechanism will ensure that Department
priorities anchor development and scaling of AI-powered solutions.  By
delivering focused AI pilots in this manner, AI applications will receive the
proper development and testing necessary to ensure safe deployment and scaling
for broad department use.
