Texas A&M University has joined OpenAI’s NexGenAI consortium, a groundbreaking $50 million collaboration launched by 15 leading institutions in artificial intelligence (AI) research and education. As the only Texas-based university in the program, Texas A&M’s selection underscores its growing leadership in AI. In alignment with its campus-wide mission, TAMIDS will seek to reinforce the efforts of stakeholders throughout Texas A&M who are working to increase Generative AI literacy.
“Our goal is not limited to teaching people to use AI tools but is also to advance how AI is used in education and training.”
Dr. Nick Duffield, Director of the Texas A&M Institute of Data Science
TAMIDS is looking forward to engaging with OpenAI and other members of the NextGenAI consortium, and involving its broader community of industry partners to inform wider opportunities for Generative AI and formulate needs for skills development for their employees.
