OpenAI has launched a new initiative called "OpenAI for Countries" in collaboration with the US government, aimed at assisting countries in building their own artificial intelligence infrastructures. This program seeks to promote democratic AI globally and provide an alternative to versions of AI that could be used to consolidate power. The initiative follows interest expressed by several countries after the AI Action Summit in Paris, where the idea of "Stargate"-style projects was discussed.
The "OpenAI for Countries" program aims to launch ten initial projects with individual countries or regions. These projects will involve helping to build in-country data center capacity, delivering customized instances of ChatGPT tailored for local languages and cultures, and raising and deploying national start-up funds. OpenAI, in coordination with the US government, will assist partner countries in improving health care, education, and public services through these customized AI solutions. Funding will come from both OpenAI and participating governments.
In exchange for OpenAI's assistance, partner countries are expected to invest in expanding the global Stargate Project. This project, announced by former US President Donald Trump, aims to invest up to $500 billion in AI infrastructure, solidifying US leadership in AI technology. According to OpenAI, this collaboration will foster a growing global network effect for democratic AI. The effort underscores the importance of acting now to support countries preferring to build on democratic AI rails and providing a clear alternative to authoritarian versions of AI.
