On the federal front this week, the White House’s new AI plan is making headlines. But, change is also in motion at the state level as a new CIO jumps into the saddle for the state of Texas.
At a glance, the new AI plan covers a lot:
More control for parents
More accountability for platforms
A closer look at AI’s energy footprint
A balancing act on intellectual property
A firm stance on free speech
A push to avoid 50 different state-level AI rulebooks
And preparing workers for what’s ahead.
Which makes the timing especially notable.
Because, according to a recent survey, the workforce appears to be moving in the opposite direction. Employees are growing more uneasy about AI, and at the same time, employer support and training efforts are pulling back, leaving a widening gap between how fast AI is advancing and how prepared people feel to use it.
And that gap is where the real work begins.
