Governor Josh Shapiro will visit West Chester Community Center to hold a roundtable discussion with Attorney General Dave Sunday, legislators, educators, experts, students, and parents on steps the Commonwealth can take to keep Pennsylvanians who use artificial intelligence safe and hold bad actors accountable.

Last month, the Governor announced his Administration's newest action to keep Pennsylvanians safe, launching an AI literacy toolkit, creating an AI Enforcement Task Force, and working with the PA Office of the Attorney General to strengthen coordination to protect Pennsylvanians from the harm of AI chat bots.
