# Federal AI Stakeholders Address Operational Risks

A virtual federal AI risk-management webcast is scheduled for December 3, 2026, from 2:00 to 3:00 p.m. Eastern Time. It will cover AI observability, risk detection, incident response, human oversight, and operating-cost controls as agencies move AI systems into operational use. The signal identifies no solicitation, contract, or specific procurement opportunity; its relevance is to contractors and procurement teams assessing the capabilities needed to support government AI operations.

- The discussion areas may help agencies and contractors identify operational support needs around AI monitoring, incident handling, human oversight, and cost control.
- Contractors can use the webcast topics to assess whether their AI services and support offerings address these agency concerns; the signal does not establish new mandatory requirements.
- The event is scheduled for December 3, 2026. Splunk is named in the webcast branding, but its hosting or sponsorship role is unspecified.
