OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has called on global governments to invest in developing their own AI infrastructure, emphasizing that public institutions must not rely solely on private companies for critical technology. He clarified that his earlier remarks about seeking a government “bailout” were misunderstood, explaining that OpenAI only seeks stronger collaboration, not financial rescue.
Altman’s comments come as nations race to strengthen their AI capabilities and regulate rapidly advancing technologies like GPT models. His call highlights the need for independent, sovereign AI systems to ensure transparency, security, and long-term innovation.
