Eliminating Bias in Algorithmic Systems Act of 2023
The Eliminating Bias in Algorithmic Systems Act of 2023 requires federal agencies that use or regulate complex algorithms (like AI systems) to establish dedicated offices focused on preventing bias and discrimination. These agencies must submit detailed reports every two years to Congress on algorithmic risks, mitigation efforts, stakeholder engagement, and recommendations for improvement. The law also creates an interagency working group to coordinate anti-bias strategies across agencies. It directly affects all federal agencies whose algorithms impact government programs, economic opportunities, or protected rights, such as those managing benefits, loans, or employment systems.
