As we all know, artificial intelligence is no longer just for sci-fi movies, it's real, in our homes, our jobs, our government, it's everywhere. Because of that, Maine has finally created an AI taskforce.

What does that mean? Well, Governor Janet Mills just created what's called the, Maine Artificial Intelligence Task Force.

It's basically a group of people who will help to study, research, and figure out how our state as a whole should handle artificial intelligence and the rise of it across the state.
