A new bipartisan bill, sponsored by Senator Maria Cantwell called the NSF AI Education Act of 2024, aims to strengthen AI education and workforce training across the U.S. by introducing scholarships, grants, and professional development fellowships. It also proposes creating AI Centers of Excellence at community colleges and launching the "NSF Grand Challenges" to train 1 million workers in AI by 2028. This initiative is crucial for maintaining U.S. leadership in AI and supporting diverse populations in tech. Glad to see D’s and R’s both supporting much needed investment in AI workforce training. https://lnkd.in/eYkqHU8a
