SeedAI proudly endorses the Expanding AI Voices Act, which aims to diversify AI research and workforce development. This bipartisan bill, spearheaded by Representatives Valerie Foushee and Frank Lucas, supports AI capacity-building in Minority Serving Institutions (MSIs), HBCUs, and Tribal Colleges. By expanding the National Science Foundation (NSF)'s ExpandAI program, the act ensures that the future of AI is inclusive and representative of all communities.

“There are hundreds of thousands of college students in the country that can make meaningful, rewarding, substantive contributions to the AI ecosystem — but they have no pathway to doing so. The Expanding AI Voices Act would broaden the pipeline so that these students can be competitive for some of the highest-paying jobs in the country, make real positive change in the field, and put AI to work for the betterment of their communities. SeedAI applauds Representatives Foushee and Lucas for their leadership on this issue." - Austin Carson, Founder and CEO of SeedAI
