Mapping of YDC AI Governance Framework to Maryland AI Executive Order

Here is a guest blog with Zhanara Amans.


Maryland’s AI Executive Order 01.01.2024.02 on Catalyzing the Responsible and Productive Use of Artificial Intelligence in Maryland State Government is an AI oversight framework for state government operations. It provides a balanced approach to AI governance, combining innovation with responsible use.

An AI Subcabinet, led by the Secretary of the Department of Information Technology and a new Senior Advisor for Responsible AI, guides implementation across departments. The framework requires risk assessments, legal reviews, and adherence to core principles of fairness, privacy, and security. Key mandates include an AI action plan, playbooks, controlled testing, and human oversight of AI systems. While less comprehensive than the EU AI Act, the framework provides a solid starting point for government agencies with more limited resources.

The infographic maps the YDC AI Governance Framework to key provisions in the Maryland AI Executive Order.
