  We review key considerations, practices, and areas for future work aimed at
the responsible development and fielding of AI technologies. We describe
critical challenges and make recommendations on topics that should be given
priority consideration, practices that should be implemented, and policies that
should be defined or updated to reflect developments with capabilities and uses
of AI technologies. The Key Considerations were developed with a lens for
adoption by U.S. government departments and agencies critical to national
security. However, they are relevant more generally for the design,
construction, and use of AI systems.
