This section directs the Federal Acquisition Security Council to develop, within 60 days of enactment, a list of artificial intelligence produced or developed by a foreign adversary. It further requires the Director of the Office of Management and Budget, in coordination with the Federal Acquisition Security Council, to publish the list on a public website within 180 days of enactment and directs the Federal Acquisition Security Council to update the list at least every 180 days, including a process to remove artificial intelligence upon owner certification (subject to review and certification by the Federal Acquisition Security Council) that it is not produced or developed by a foreign adversary.
This section requires the head of each executive agency, not later than 90 days after the date of enactment of this Act and in coordination with the Federal Acquisition Security Council, to review and consider excluding and removing artificial intelligence provided by covered foreign adversary entities listed pursuant to section 2(a), subject to approved exceptions. It mandates use of authorities under section 4713 of title 41, United States Code (i.e., supply chain risk management procedures), for such mitigation and authorizes agency heads to approve exceptions—upon written notice to the Director of the Office of Management and Budget and the appropriate congressional committees—if necessary for scientifically valid research, evaluation or testing, counterterrorism or counterintelligence activities, or mission-critical functions.
