A recent analysis of federal AI education funding from 2022 to 2026 reveals a significant concentration in a few states, with California leading and New Mexico surprisingly securing the second position. The study, which used National Science Foundation data, found that 35% of new AI-related education awards are distributed across just five states. New Mexico's high ranking is attributed to the broad distribution of funds across its institutions, with nearly 70% reaching historically Black colleges, tribal colleges, and community colleges, thereby increasing access to AI education and opportunities.
