The State of California has partnered with technology company NVIDIA on a new initiative to collaborate on cutting-edge artificial intelligence (AI) efforts and provide students, educators, and workers with access to this technology.<\/span><\/p>\n

The initiative, signed by Governor Gavin Newsom and NVIDIA Founder and CEO Jensen Huang, aims to train students, educators and workers, as well as support job creation and promote innovation, and use AI to solve challenges that can improve the lives of Californians.<\/span><\/p>\n

Among other goals, the goal is to bring new AI resources to NVIDIA community colleges, including curricula and certifications, hardware and software, AI labs and workshops, and more, to open new avenues for students, educators, and workers to learn new skills and advance their careers.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cCalifornia\u2019s world-leading companies are pioneering advances in artificial intelligence, and it\u2019s critical that we create more opportunities for Californians to gain the skills needed to use this technology and advance their careers,\u201d Newsom said during the agreement.<\/span><\/p>\n

The governor highlighted that this partnership connects artificial intelligence tools directly with students, educators and workers, creating a channel to drive the innovations of the future.<\/span><\/p>\n

This initiative builds on Governor Newsom\u2019s executive order requiring the state to use artificial intelligence to better serve Californians.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe are in the early stages of a new industrial revolution that will transform trillion-dollar industries around the world. Together with California, NVIDIA will train 100,000 students, university professors, developers and data scientists to harness this technology to prepare California for tomorrow\u2019s challenges and create prosperity across the state,\u201d said Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Santa Clara-based tech company aims to provide technical guidance, mentorship and access to advanced AI hardware and software resources to support cutting-edge research initiatives, while California will explore opportunities to support early-stage AI startups and public-private partnerships to create AI innovation zones and job creation hubs.<\/span><\/p>\n

California and NVIDIA plan to collaborate to create AI labs at higher education facilities that can be equipped to meet the evolving needs of AI education and research.<\/span><\/p>\n

The state noted that it will fund AI workforce training initiatives in educational institutions and industries and work with NVIDIA to develop programs for teachers aimed at improving AI literacy and curriculum.<\/span><\/p>\n

To that end, NVIDIA aims to create pipelines and learning paths for AI talent and industry-recognized certifications for AI in specific sectors, including train-the-trainer programs for teachers, while California will adopt skills and training for state careers, including new roles for AI specialists in government.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThis partnership will help California Community Colleges and their more than 2 million students prepare with industry-aligned AI skills and be ready from day one for careers that will boost their prosperity and our state\u2019s economic competitiveness,\u201d said Sonya Christian, Chancellor of California Community Colleges.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe cannot stand idly by as AI changes the future of learning, and our approach prioritizes equitable access to AI teaching and learning enhancements that will help underserved populations,\u201d she added.<\/span><\/p>\n

Following Friday\u2019s announcement, California issued a call to action to encourage other AI and technology stakeholders to join in future collaborations to ensure California remains a global leader in education, innovation, research, and preparing today\u2019s and tomorrow\u2019s workforce.<\/span><\/p>\n

It is noteworthy that the University of California and California State University systems will also partner with the state on these initiatives in the future.<\/span><\/p>\n
