The commonwealth of Massachusetts is betting big on artificial intelligence to power the future economy.
And state leaders are placing this bet with Northeastern University’s co-op model in mind.
“Northeastern students have worked with state teams to try out AI tools that are now, right now, improving the delivery of service — it’s a big deal,” Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey said at a press conference Thursday.
The event was held to announce the Massachusetts AI Hub — a collaboration among government, industry, startups and academia to make Massachusetts the leader in AI.
Healey told the audience that she was “floored” when Northeastern students presented projects they worked on with state agencies.
