[Mississippi Artificial Intelligence Network (MAIN) @MS_AI_Network]

The future of AI in manufacturing is not about replacing people. It is about helping Mississippi manufacturers become more productive and competitive.

Today, Dr. Kollin Napier represented MAIN in a panel on AI, workforce readiness, data, cybersecurity, & manufacturing adoption.

Last week, Mississippi brought a working AI model to the national stage.

At the inaugural #USAICongress, Dr. Kollin Napier, Director of Mississippi AI Network (MAIN) showed what AI readiness is: free AI courses statewide, training pathways, one network.

Not a plan. Live today.

We're launching the Mississippi Statewide AI Framework.

It establishes statewide AI priorities and provides a structured, stage-by-stage map of the AI skills learners need from K-12 through career leadership.

And it's another example of our state leading the way in innovation.

Mississippi just launched the Statewide AI Framework.

Not a mandate. Not a curriculum. A conviction, made into a map.

AI is not here to replace human judgment. It is here to amplify it.

“This framework is about preparing Mississippi’s workforce for what’s next. It keeps human judgment at the center of every decision and gives educators and employers a clear path to equip learners with the skills needed to succeed in an AI-driven economy.”

"AI is a capability layer, not a job category."

MAIN Director Dr. Kollin Napier in The Read Replica: stop building separate AI tracks for what should run through every existing role. Manufacturing. Healthcare. Welding. Education.
