Billionaire Bloomberg co-founder Tom Secunda has committed $30 million to his alma mater, New York-based Binghamton University, to build what the school calls the first independent AI research center at a public university in the country.
The gift will establish the Center for AI Responsibility and Research, which Binghamton says will be “the first-ever independent AI research center at a public university in the U.S.”
Secunda has personally committed $30 million, with an additional $25 million coming from Governor Kathy Hochul and the New York State Legislature, according to the school.
