I. INVENTORY OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE USE CASES
Pursuant to Section 7225(a) of the Advancing American AI Act and Section 10.1(e) of EO 14110, Federal
agencies are required to conduct an annual inventory of their AI use cases. The Director of the OMB is
charged with issuing instructions to agencies for the collection, reporting, and publication of information

provided by EO 14110, this guidance to agencies supersedes the annual inventory guidance originally
established pursuant to Section 5 of EO 13960, Promoting the Use of Trustworthy Artificial Intelligence in
