 “'Lights, camera, AI': Initiative gets $2 million from state

Article by Brice Wallace

The title may suggest that funding has been awarded, but the substance of the article is more accurate, stating that the GOEO Board “...approved the one-time grant…”

The bulk of the article is behind a paywall.

Joseph,

Thanks for reaching out. While our office does not formally consult with GOEO on their projects, we are often in contact with them and are generally aware the projects they're working on. And we want to be aware of any concerns Utah citizens have about AI issues. If you're interested, I'd be happy to meet with you to make sure I better understand your concerns with GOEO's IAA grant...

Looking forward to connecting.

Best,
Cam Bronson | Legal Analyst & Records Officer
