Businesses could get a tax break for training workers in AI

Officially: AI Workforce Training Act

Businesses could get money off their federal taxes for AI training costs. The credit would cover 30% of eligible costs, up to $2,500 per worker each year. Federal agencies would have to help businesses learn how to use it.
