OpenAI Unveils AI Policy Proposals to Best China, Child Protection: ‘This is a Race America Can and Must Win’

OpenAI sets up a host of new ones artificial intelligence (AI) policy proposals that the research organization believes will help the United States maintain its lead over the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).

On Monday, OpenAI revealed the details of its artificial intelligence “Economic plan”, which the company hopes will be adopted by the new Trump administration and Congress. The blueprint will serve as a “living document” for the responsible construction and implementation of artificial intelligence.

Talking to Fox News Digital, Open AI’s vice president of global affairs, Chris Lehane, said it is “absolutely imperative” that the US continues to command AI innovation and production.

“One country, the US, is building a democratic AI. It’s free. It’s available. The other is going to build an authoritarian, autocratic AI. And this is really like a zero-sum race,” Lehane said.

Foreign competitors and adversaries have made it clear that AI is a key component of economic and militaristic dominance.

The CCP has said it wants to be the top player in artificial intelligence by 2030. Meanwhile, Russian President Vladimir Putin is entered in the records, stating that whoever wins the AI ​​race wins the world.

“The U.S. is leading right now,” Lehane told Fox News Digital. “That leadership is not guaranteed, and we absolutely must do everything we can to make sure we maintain that leadership. And so, many of the policies that are outlined in [our economic blueprint] they’re designed for that.”

OpenAI notes that an estimated $175 billion is sitting in global funds—waiting for investment in AI projects.

“If the US does not attract these funds, they will flow to projects supported by China—strengthening the global influence of the Chinese Communist Party,” the economic plan said.

They also believe that the rules and regulations for the development and use of artificial intelligence should be based on the democratic values ​​that the United States has always supported.

“We believe in America because America believes in innovation,” says OpenAI.

To ensure competitiveness and safety, OpenAI says the US government should enable AI through “common sense rules” to protect people from “real harm”.

“For us, this means that in the same way that the federal government helped pave the way for the development of the nascent auto industry, including preventing tangled roads and state-by-state rules, it should pave the way for the artificial intelligence industry to develop frontier models to best way to ensure that they advance US economic and national security,” says OpenAI.

The company notes that “frontier models” refer to state-of-the-art language models that can be responsibly exported to US allies and partners, allowing them to establish their own AI ecosystems and distribute the potential benefits.

Led by the federal government, in consultation with industry, OpenAI says the strategy should develop best practices that guide collaboration with national security departments and agencies while protecting against the risks of criminal, terrorist and state-sponsored abuses.

OpenAI also calls on the government to “develop alternatives to the growing motley national and international regulations that risk undermining American competitiveness.”

This includes the federal government leading the development of a national security assessment at home, while simultaneously establishing an “international coalition” to create “common security standards” abroad.

To achieve maximum benefit and minimize harm, OpenAI says the government needs to get access to AI and its benefits “from the very beginning.” The company, which calls this idea “rules of the road”, believes that a successful approach will create “a flywheel of growing prosperity and respect for democratic values”.

“With artificial intelligence, our children will be able to do things that we can’t, and in the end, everyone’s lives can be better than anyone’s life is now. But we have to work to achieve this,” OpenAI emphasizes.

With the widespread adoption of artificial intelligence in the US, OpenAI suggests that the technology will gain trust among the general population. Users, the company says, should be sure that their children will be protected from possible injuries, they will know where the content is coming from and will be able to customize the AI ​​tools to their liking.

OpenAI says states also have a “vital role” in AI.

“They can fulfill their historic role as a laboratory for democracy by supporting AI experimentation, including start-ups and smaller AI companies, to identify ways to solve people’s everyday hard problems in areas such as education and health. They can support their government officials and communities of developers experimenting with artificial intelligence to identify ways to improve the lives of their taxpayers,” the economic plan said.

Lehane says states can also support AI literacy programs in school systems across the US—enabling the next generation of developers to build solutions to future problems.

“Those developers don’t necessarily have to be in San Francisco, do they? Those developers could be in Kansas. Those developers could be in Alabama. Those developers could be in my home state of Maine. I mean, there’s incredible talent in these places . . . If they get access to education about it, then they can build, you know, in the places where they grew up,” he said.

The company points out that these proposals reflect their position that chips, energy and talent are the keys to winning AI “this is a race America can and must win.”

“We can’t get the national security part right and we can’t get the economic distribution part right if we don’t get the infrastructure. That’s just the foundation and foundation for the other two parts. The other two parts just become a little bit, you know, kind of abstract and intellectual or aspirational,” he said.

OpenAI says building the infrastructure is not only “vital” to ensure that artificial intelligence around the world is based on American technology, but also an “unmissable opportunity” to create a “re-industrialization” of the country.

The AI ​​Research Organization believes this infrastructure will drive down the cost of computing — the term for the technology and resources that power AI — making it abundant and, in turn, creating tens of thousands professional jobs, stimulate local economies and modernize the energy network.

The company’s proposal for infrastructure includes the digitization of government data currently in analog form, an AI agreement among US allies and partner nations, the creation of AI economic zones, the creation of AI research labs and workforces, and federal grants for high-value AI public works.

The plan would also include a dramatic increase in federal spending on power and data transmission and streamlined approvals for new lines. This would be accompanied by the creation of a “National Artificial Intelligence Infrastructure Highway” to connect regional energy and communications networks.
