Open Forum for AI (OFAI) is working with Heinz College and the NobleReach Foundation to develop an open-source AI curriculum tailored specifically to the needs of public sector and OFAI member institutions. Its creation affirms OFAI’s commitment to advancing ethical and accessible approaches to AI by empowering the public with the tools they need to harness AI for the common good.

CMU launched OFAI in July 2024, leading a group of partners that includes other universities and foundations. OFAI was founded with the goal of creating human-centered and responsible AI policy. OFAI, which is partially funded by CMU Libraries, is also led by a member of CMU Libraries staff: Sayeed Choudhury, who also serves as CMU Libraries’s associate dean for digital infrastructure and director of the Open Source Programs Office.
