Artificial Intelligence Playbook in Government

I viewed the recording of this webinar and here are few points made by 
Eric Forseter of Data Robot:

  * A key issue is how to create the right roadmap
  * The number of use cases is exponentially greater than the number of
    data scientists.  So the process must be automated.
  * The first step is to develop good use cases.

Having learned of the VA's National AI Institute, I converted their 
about statement to StratML format at 
https://stratml.us/drybridge/index.htm#NAII

These objectives are closely related to the mission 
<https://stratml.us/carmel/iso/AIKRCGwStyle.xml#_63f01b52-83e9-11e8-9a9a-23c8e53a5ccc> 
of the AIKR CG and the purposes <https://stratml.us/#DefinitionPurposes> 
of the StratML standard:

    Objective 1.2: Explainable AI
    <https://stratml.us/carmel/iso/NAIIwStyle.xml#_66885f5e-71e1-11ea-9878-140f2583ea00>
    - Emphasize explainable AI.

    Objective 2.2: Partnerships
    <https://stratml.us/carmel/iso/NAIIwStyle.xml#_6688621a-71e1-11ea-9878-140f2583ea00>
    - Explore potential partnerships with federal and non-federal entities.

    Objective 3.2: Collaboration
    <https://stratml.us/carmel/iso/NAIIwStyle.xml#_668863dc-71e1-11ea-9878-140f2583ea00>
    - Forge collaborations.

    Objective 4.1: Handbook
    <https://stratml.us/carmel/iso/NAIIwStyle.xml#_66886512-71e1-11ea-9878-140f2583ea00>
    - Create an AI Tech Sprint handbook.

Roadmaps, use cases, and handbooks are immature models for performance 
plans.  To be effective, one way or another, they must be fleshed out as 
actual performance plans in order to deliver the desired results.

Pradeep, while NIH's RFI regarding the update to their strategic plan 
makes no explicit reference to AI, it is implicit in this cross-cutting 
theme:

    Data & Technology
    <https://stratml.us/carmel/iso/NIHSPF2020wStyle.xml#_49ef31de-6a5b-11ea-9f51-705d1a83ea00>
    - Optimize Data Science and the Development of Technologies and Tools

As well as this objective:

    Objective 2.2: Resources & Infrastructure
    <https://stratml.us/carmel/iso/NIHSPF2020wStyle.xml#_49ef2cb6-6a5b-11ea-9f51-705d1a83ea00>
    - Support Research Resources and Infrastructure

The VA is obviously among the organizations with which NIH should be 
efficiently and effectively collaborating and partnering, and vice 
versa, including via the application of AI.  It would be good if we 
could show them not only how the stratml:Relationship elements but also 
StratML query services can be used to make such opportunities salient.

It would be good if some small share of the unfathomable amounts of 
money about to be thrown at the coronavirus could be devoted toward 
worldwide application of the good practice set forth in section 10 
<https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/open-machine-readable-government-owen-ambur/> 
of the GPRA Modernization Act (GPRAMA).  It is quite literally a matter 
of life and death.
