Waco, TX – According to the state officials, the Council will study and monitor artificial intelligence (AI) technology developed, employed, or procured by Texas state agencies.

To protect Texans’ privacy and basic civil liberties, I signed legislation creating the Artificial Intelligence Advisory Council to study and monitor artificial intelligence systems developed or used by our state agencies.

The Council will help cement Texas’ position as a national leader in innovative technology, ensuring our state continues designing and employing the latest and greatest AI technology while prioritizing the security of all Texans.”
