Inside Colorado's "bullish with guardrails" AI approach; Axios, November 13, 2025

John Frank, Ashley Gold, Axios ; Inside Colorado's "bullish with guardrails" AI approach

"Colorado's approach to integrating artificial intelligence into government functions is "bullish with guardrails."

Why it matters: Colorado offers a model for balancing AI innovation with safety, barring the technology from "anything that looks or smells or could possibly be thought of as a consequential decision," David Edinger, the state's chief information officer, told Axios in an interview.


Driving the news: The approach is a directive from Gov. Jared Polis, a former technology entrepreneur who encouraged the state's technology office to embrace AI in government.


The state's Office of Information and Technology created a framework for AI use with the NIST AI Risk Management Framework, considering the needs of different state agencies.


  • The technology is making office work and mundane tasks easier and state employees with disabilities said AI made them more productive."
