NCI has issued a Request for Information (RFI) to gather feedback on key artificial intelligence (AI) benchmarks and related data sets. This input will play a key role in driving progress in the development, evaluation, and validation of AI technologies for cancer research and care.

Key questions to consider include the following:

1. What specific cases or tasks in cancer research and care could benefit from high-quality AI benchmarks?
2. What are the most important features of these benchmarks (considering quality, usefulness, and accessibility)?
3. Can researchers use or adapt any existing data sets to create benchmarks in cancer research and care?
4. What are the main obstacles to creating or using AI benchmarks in the cancer research field?

Your ideas will help ensure these benchmarks meet the real-world needs of both the cancer and AI communities.
