Yale University's announcement last week that it would invest $150 million in the development of artificial intelligence programs over five years was met with praise from higher education officials within and outside of the Yale community. In an Aug. 28 letter to the Yale community, Yale Provost Scott Strobel said the investment follows a report from the Yale Task Force on Artificial Intelligence and will be allocated to fulfill four main goals: building 450 graphics processing units on a staggered basis to allow researchers to process large data sets and conduct advanced simulations; launching a proprietary generative AI platform called Clarity; recruiting "more than twenty" faculty members with an academic focus on AI technology and piloting curriculum review grants; and promoting collaboration and innovation between departments.
