"As someone who has a healthy balance of experience using AI and skepticism regarding its misuse, I am honored to be appointed to this newly formed task force," said Grohoski in a press release.
"Last year, I introduced legislation to create a similar task force, so I am thrilled to have the opportunity to contribute to this necessary and timely effort. Al is already playing a significant role in our changing world, and I look forward to working with the task force to ensure we protect Maine people and our way of life as the technology matures."
