OpenAI teases “new era” of AI in US, deepens ties with government
AI could help protect national security, detect diseases, and stabilize power grids, company says.
On Thursday, OpenAI announced that it is deepening its ties with the US government through a partnership with the National Laboratories and expects to use AI to "supercharge" research across a wide range of fields to better serve the public.
"This is the beginning of a new era, where AI will advance science, strengthen national security, and support US government initiatives," OpenAI said.
The deal ensures that "approximately 15,000 scientists working across a wide range of disciplines to advance our understanding of nature and the universe" will have access to OpenAI's latest reasoning models, the announcement said.
