NVIDIA is partnering with the state of California on a new initiative to collaborate on artificial intelligence (AI) plans and provide students, educators, and workers with access to the evolving technology.
The initiative, signed by Governor Gavin Newsom and NVIDIA founder & CEO Jensen Huang, is intended to:
The initiative is partly built to also bring new AI resources into community colleges from NVIDIA, including curriculum and certifications, hardware and software, AI labs and workshops, and more, to equip students, educators and workers to learn new skills and advance their careers, according to NVIDIA.
This initiative builds off of Governor Newsom’s executive order, which called for the state to use AI to serve Californians. Just this year, the state unveiled a state worker training program, held a GenAI summit, issued a GenAI toolkit for state procurement, launched pilot projects to explore how GenAI could help address challenges like traffic congestion and language accessibility, and more.
"We’re in the early stages of a new industrial revolution that will transform trillion-dollar industries around the world," says NVIDIA Founder and CEO Jensen Huang. "Together with California, NVIDIA will train 100,000 students, college faculty, developers, and data scientists to harness this technology to prepare California for tomorrow’s challenges and unlock prosperity throughout the state."
California has issued a call to action encouraging other AI and tech stakeholders to join future partnerships to ensure California can help be leader in education, innovation, research, and preparing the workforce of the future and today. California’s University of California and California State University systems will also partner with the state on these efforts in the future, according to the Office of the Governor.
