Governor Kathy Hochul advocates for New York to take the lead in the field of artificial intelligence. The government recently introduced the Empire AI collaboration initiative ahead of her State of the State speech. Hochul is seeking $400 million in combined public and private funding to support the program, including the establishment of a center for artificial intelligence technology, potentially located at the University of Buffalo in upstate New York. One of the key objectives of the plan is to implement regulations ensuring responsible AI utilization by state businesses.

Governor Hochul’s proposal has the potential to enhance swimming access and promote better health. She is also advocating for paid maternity leave and is driving efforts to revamp reading instruction in response to underwhelming evaluation outcomes. Hochul is set to introduce new initiatives before 2024.
