OpenAI may give 5% to the US government
According to FT, OpenAI is in early talks to give a 5% stake to the US government.
Sam Altman’s idea is to give citizens a financial stake in AI growth. One model being discussed is the Alaska Permanent Fund: the government receives an asset, and income can be distributed to people.
The plan could also affect other major US AI developers: Anthropic, Google and Meta. They have not agreed to it yet.
The talks are still conceptual. The deal may require approval from Congress.
