This bill expands federally coordinated AI literacy and education—with multilingual materials, curricular guidance, and a coordinating commission—to boost public understanding and workforce readiness, while imposing new federal costs and raising transparency, neutrality, and equitable-access concerns.
Students, parents, teachers, and the general public will gain widely available AI literacy through free, multilingual educational materials and national awareness campaigns, improving understanding of AI tools and risks.
Teachers, schools, and higher education institutions will receive federal guidance and coordinated support to integrate AI concepts and safe-use practices into curricula, helping K–12 and postsecondary systems adopt consistent approaches.
Improved AI literacy and coordinated education efforts can strengthen the U.S. workforce and help maintain U.S. competitiveness in AI-related industries.
Taxpayers will fund a new federal commission and national multimedia education campaign, increasing federal administrative and program costs without specified budget offsets.
The Commission is exempted from FACA requirements and appointments include federal and private-sector members, creating transparency and conflict-of-interest risks and raising concerns that guidance may favor government or industry priorities over community needs.
Reliance on web-based dissemination and federal-led centralized messaging risks leaving behind households and communities without reliable broadband or digital literacy, worsening the digital divide.
Based on analysis of 5 sections of legislative text.
