description: The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) is advancing its efforts
to integrate artificial intelligence (AI) within the federal workforce by
launching a survey targeting federal employees engaged in AI-related tasks.
This initiative is part of a broader strategy mandated by the 2020 AI in
Government Act and President Biden's 2023 executive order, which aim to
identify essential skills for federal AI roles and ensure AI's safe and secure
use across agencies. Following the identification of 43 general and 14
technical competencies necessary for AI work, OPM seeks to validate these
competencies through the AI job analysis survey. The survey will involve
employees from various departments, including the Office of Science and
Technology Policy and chief information and data officers. The outcome will
contribute to developing an AI competency model, potentially leading to the
revision or creation of job series to include AI skills, and help forecast AI
job needs in the federal government. This model aims to enhance the
recruitment, development, and promotion of AI talent, aligning with agencies'
missions and strategic goals.
