In a recent development, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has been vocal about the need for U.S. leadership in the field of artificial intelligence (AI) to safeguard a democratic future for this technology. Altman has highlighted the strategic decision that needs to be made – either advancing global AI in collaboration with allied nations or risking authoritarian regimes exploiting AI for their own gain.

To address this concern, Altman has proposed the formation of a U.S.-led global coalition comprising like-minded countries. He believes that this coalition should adopt an innovative strategy to shape a democratic vision of AI. Altman has also stressed the significance of implementing robust security measures in American AI companies and the establishment of physical infrastructure for AI.

Moreover, Altman has suggested the development of a coherent commercial diplomacy policy specifically tailored for AI. He has also recommended exploring new models for establishing norms surrounding this technology. Altman has underscored the importance of making open-sourced AI models easily accessible to developers to strengthen the U.S.’ advantage in AI.

Interestingly, Altman has aligned himself with Elon Musk’s viewpoint on the importance of open-source AI models in reinforcing U.S. dominance in AI. In a related development, Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta company has released an open-source AI model named Llama 3.1. Zuckerberg believes that this move is crucial for a positive AI future and argues that open-source alternatives are safer than closed-source options.
