The goal of AI Blueprint for MA is to coordinate and implement practical efforts to attract, retain and grow AI talent for New England. This effort supports that State of MA AI Task Force and is a volunteer organization. We have monthly Zoom calls, open to the public.

Paul Baier at GAI Insights and others are managing this part-time, volunteer effort. We are "doers" and we welcome other like minded in volunteers. We have monthly “get organized” Zoom calls (the first Friday of each month) and treat each month like an "engineering sprint" top get a small set of tasks completed.
