The David Eccles School of Business is implementing a vision for AI‑fluent education that integrates generative AI into core learning while keeping critical thinking, ethics, and decision‑making at the center. The initiative supports both students and faculty through training, shared resources, and career-aligned guidance to prepare graduates for an AI‑enabled workplace.
At the 2025 Utah AI Summit, Dr. Penny Atkins highlighted Utah’s growing leadership in responsible AI through strong collaboration between universities, state government, and industry. She emphasized the University of Utah’s research momentum and the One‑U Responsible AI Initiative as key drivers for embedding ethical AI practices into research and education. The panel agreed that Utah’s coordinated, cross‑sector approach positions the state to advance innovative AI that aligns with public trust and societal needs.
