The Trump Administration has aggressively pushed to accelerate AI adoption and has signaled interest in preparing Americans to use AI tools as they emerge. But what does this “AI literacy” actually mean, and what is the vision for how that will happen?

Over the past year, a wave of federal action has taken place: a cross-agency talent strategy to guide workforce upskilling from the Departments of Commerce, Education, and Labor; an AI Action Plan aimed at accelerating AI adoption and innovation; a legislative framework to shape and guide AI policy at the state and federal level; and a national AI literacy framework paired with an initiative to offer a round of free AI courses to every American.

The push toward AI literacy comes as AI threatens to deepen inequality and put vulnerable groups at greater risk across the United States. The administration’s agenda on AI is ambitious, but there are important questions to answer about how it will translate from policy to practice—and who will be left behind.

In this webinar, we’ll dig into the implementation challenges and opportunities at the heart of the administration’s AI literacy push: What is AI literacy—and how does it connect to the baseline digital skills that people already need but don’t always have? Who bears the responsibility for building these skills? What funding is available to support these initiatives, and how can it be effectively deployed? Which groups are being left behind as the administration forges ahead on AI upskilling? And how does all of this relate to the broader field of connectivity policy?

More broadly, what are the opportunities posed by the current U.S. approach to AI literacy, and where does it fall short?

Join OTI and a group of expert panelists to discuss the U.S. AI skilling agenda—what implementation might look like, where gaps remain, and what comes next.
