TOS and Next Steps

A few questions...
* Is GSA (or anyone) negotiating federal-friendly TOS for the platforms, such as Alexa, involved in the GSA AI Assistant Pilot?
* Is there any news on what the next steps for the pilot are or guidance as to how we can proceed?
* Have the results from the Digital Assistant Pilot Survey been evaluated?

As part of the GSA AI Assistant Pilot, the National Park Service has been working away and has [several products](https://github.com/GSA/AI-Assistant-Pilot/wiki/National-Park-Service#products) for the Alexa platform. One of those, [NPS Ranger](https://github.com/GSA/AI-Assistant-Pilot/wiki/National-Park-Service#nps-ranger-custom-skill), will begin beta testing with volunteers and staff on October 19. As we assess the tasks remaining before publishing our skill for the public to use, the hurdle that concerns us most is a federally approved terms of service (TOS) for the Alexa platform.

This issue is a request for policy and pilot-status answers rather than a code change. Review the National Park Service and NPS Ranger custom skill pages in the linked wiki, then check whether the pilot’s next steps, federally approved Alexa terms of service, and survey evaluation have been documented. Done means providing authoritative answers or linked guidance.
