(D) Capabilities required to create and maintain a shared computing infrastructure to facilitate access to computing resources for researchers across the country, including scalability, secured access control, resident data engineering and curation expertise, provision of curated data sets, compute resources, educational tools and services, and a user interface portal. (E) An assessment of, and recommended solutions to, barriers to the dissemination and use of high-quality government data sets as part of the National Artificial Intelligence Research Resource. (F) An assessment of security requirements associated with the National Artificial Intelligence Research Resource and its research and a recommendation for a framework for the management of access controls. (G) An assessment of privacy and civil rights and civil liberties requirements associated with the National Artificial Intelligence Research Resource and its research. (H) A plan for sustaining the Resource, including through Federal funding and partnerships with the private sector. (I) Parameters for the establishment and sustainment of the National Artificial Intelligence Research Resource, including agency roles and responsibilities and milestones to implement the Resource. (c) ConsultationsIn conducting its duties required under subsection (b), the Task Force shall consult with the following:(1) The National Science Foundation. (2) The Office of Science and Technology Policy. (3) The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine. (4) The National Institute of Standards and Technology. (5) The Director of National Intelligence. (6) The Department of Energy. (7) The Department of Defense. (8) The General Services Administration. (9) The Department of Justice.
