On Monday, July 20, from 9:00–10:30 AM at the UMass Club, the MassINC Polling Group will present new statewide polling on Massachusetts voters’ attitudes toward artificial intelligence, including how residents are using AI in their everyday lives, how they weigh its opportunities against its risks, and what role they believe state policymakers should play as the technology continues to evolve.
The presentation will be followed by a discussion of what the findings reveal about public attitudes and the policy questions facing the Commonwealth.
Speakers include:
- Dr. John Basl – Associate Professor of Philosophy, Northeastern University Ethics Institute
- Andrew Doris – Policy Director, Secure AI Project
- Beauclarine Thomas – State and Local Government Relations Lead, Anthropic
- Peter Howe, Moderator – SVP, Denterlein; Former NECN and Boston Globe Reporter
The poll and event are sponsored by Anthropic.
