AI in Michigan

Michigan's Department of Labor and Economic Opportunity unveiled the AI and the Workforce Plan at the 2025 Mackinac Policy Conference, adding AI and digital skills training through all 16 Michigan Works! agencies. The Department of Technology, Management and Budget publishes AI adoption and usage guidelines for state agencies (August 2025), and the Michigan Department of Education released statewide K-12 AI guidance in May 2026, developed with Michigan Virtual.
