# TAO has a community dedicated to AI

I had the chance to catch up with Charlie Kawasaki, yesterday. I’d been tracking on AI related events that [TAO](https://www.techoregon.org/) was driving, but he brought me up to speed on TAO’s other efforts around AI, including the formation of the [TAO AI and Data Community.](https://www.techoregon.org/communities/ai-and-data) (Also, hat tip to [Aaron Wirick for highlighting it in the AI channel on Portland Startups Slack](https://pdxstartups.slack.com/archives/C1VP83ZKQ/p1713365806781629).)

> Join this community of individuals passionate about leveraging artificial intelligence, data analytics, science, management, and governance to fuel effective business strategies.
> 
> The TAO AI & Data Community connects individuals passionate about artificial intelligence and data analytics to ignite collaboration, knowledge sharing, and best practices.

The community uses a LinkedIn group to share information. [It’s open to join if you’re interested](https://www.linkedin.com/groups/14194941/).
