Requires OIT to develop NJ generative artificial intelligence program and implement artificial intelligence education courses with county governments; appropriates $1.5 million.

This bill requires New Jersey's Office of Information Technology (OIT) to create a public generative artificial intelligence program that generates text, images, or videos in response to user prompts. OIT must annually test the program for cybersecurity risks and implement safety measures. The bill also mandates OIT to partner with county governments to offer free public education courses on AI, covering how generative AI works, identifying biases, and mitigating inaccuracies - while respecting privacy and legal compliance. It appropriates $1 million for program development and $500,000 in grants to counties for course implementation. The program and courses will directly affect all New Jersey residents seeking to understand AI tools.
