Introduction
The common resource framework record described in Part 1 of the present document (ETSI TS 104 158-1 [1]) enables
any kind of AI incident related resources to be made known to others in almost any manner and basis of their choosing,
including similar lists, specifications, and repositories of information "containers."
Part 1 (ETSI TS 104 158-1 [1]) enables many different containers. Most of the information fields optional. The present
part of the present document provides for a generic data record for an AICIE "common container" derived from work of
the OECD, published government and industry requirements, and other current researchers and providers of AI incident
reporting that attempts to bridge the highly diverse reporting and user communities [i.1] thru [i.33].
