It does not address specific AI risks, harms, or safety concerns described in the MIT taxonomy. The document focuses on workforce development and educational program administration rather than AI risk mitigation.
This document primarily governs Educational Services by establishing funding and oversight for deep technology educational programs at Utah institutions of higher education. It indirectly involves Professional and Technical Services and Scientific Research and Development Services through industry partnerships and workforce development goals.
The document does not directly address specific AI lifecycle stages. It focuses on educational program development and workforce training in deep technology fields including AI, rather than governing the development, deployment, or operation of AI systems themselves.
