Rockefeller Foundation Launches ‘AI Readiness’ Initiative for U.S. Governments

The Rockefeller Foundation and the Center for Civic Futures have jointly launched the “AI Readiness Project”, a national initiative to boost public-sector capacity for responsibly deploying artificial intelligence across U.S. states, territories and tribal nations. The project includes a Government AI Knowledge Hub, pilot programmes and training modules aimed at helping officials separate hype from practical outcomes in AI adoption. The move underscores growing emphasis on governance, trust and infrastructure in AI transformation beyond enterprise use-cases.
