Can Hartford become an AI hub?
Poll Description

The city of Hartford is requesting state support to launch an artificial intelligence hub in the Capital City, an effort that could include an investment up to $100 million over several years.

The Connecticut Center for Applied AI, organizers say, would offer training to create a pipeline of workers capable of using AI tools to solve business problems. It would also contain laboratory spaces where businesses, academics and other entities could test potential AI applications and use cases.

It wouldn’t contain massive banks of servers or a supercomputer. But it would have the technology to securely connect with high-level AI engines.

Mayor Arunan Arulampalam said he envisions the AI hub as an important center of gravity, providing a talent pipeline and testing ground to help keep the city’s existing corporations anchored, while also drawing experts and students to participating universities.
