OpenAI outlines plan for US to lead in artificial intelligence and counter China

OpenAI has released a new economic blueprint aimed at positioning the US as a leader in artificial intelligence. The plan emphasizes the importance of US-made AI and equitable access across the country, rather than concentrating benefits in tech-heavy areas. Key recommendations include establishing nationwide AI regulations, easing export restrictions for allies, and creating regional AI hubs tailored to local needs. OpenAI also calls for increased federal investment in infrastructure to support AI advancements. The company aims to attract significant global investment in AI, currently estimated at $175 billion, to prevent it from supporting Chinese initiatives. OpenAI's focus is on ensuring that the US remains competitive in the global AI landscape.
