Research & Thought Leadership

Building on its initial success in developing California’s first community-college-level AI and Machine Learning (AI/ML) curriculum, ICAP is currently supporting two new initiatives that engage SVLG members and public sector partners to advance AI deployment and workforce intelligence strategies across California:

Engaging with SVLG members and California municipal leaders to develop strategies and tools for how California can maximize the benefits of AI technology adoption to enhance public sector services delivery, led by ICAP Fellow: Jake Brymner.

Equipping California policymakers, residents, and employers with workforce intelligence and digital infrastructure to navigate workforce transition ahead of the AI disruption wave, led by ICAP Fellow Yeo Yong Kia in partnership with  Shira Frank and Tim Marple from Maiden Labs.
