Our Founding Vision
Our Founding Vision
Minnesota will lead the way in integrating AI into education, ensuring every learner gains the knowledge, skills, and agency to shape the future. AI must personalize learning, fuel innovation, and empower students to think critically, solve complex problems, and thrive in an evolving workforce. Critically, this integration must be rooted in ethical, transparent, and inclusive practices, ensuring AI supports—not replaces—educators, thereby strengthening relationships and guaranteeing equitable access to high-quality learning.
