OpenAI recently issued a proposal in Washington, calling on the United States and its allies to strengthen cooperation in the field of artificial intelligence to deal with competition from China. The proposal aims to enhance the U.S. influence in the field of AI and to “revive the American Dream” through global cooperation. OpenAI stressed that cooperation should first be carried out among neighboring countries, gradually expand to global allies, and focus on the construction of talents, funds and supply chains required by AI to ensure that the United States maintains a leading position in AI infrastructure construction. To support the huge energy demand required for AI development, OpenAI also recommends that the United States invest in related energy infrastructure projects, including simplifying the process of restarting nuclear reactors and using naval power to expand nuclear energy production capacity.
According to Bloomberg, OpenAI's policy blue suggests that cooperation will first develop between its neighbors and then gradually expand to allies around the world. This cooperation will focus on the talent, financing and supply chains required by artificial intelligence, ensuring that the United States is at the forefront of AI infrastructure.
To meet the energy needs of artificial intelligence development, OpenAI also recommends that the United States support relevant energy infrastructure projects, simplify the restart process of nuclear reactors, and use the power of the U.S. Navy to expand nuclear energy production capacity. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman once said that insufficient computing power is hindering the launch of the company's products, and he mentioned in the Reddit Q&A session: "These models are becoming more and more complex, and we are facing how to allocate them." Many limitations and difficult decisions of computing resources.”
In addition, in September, OpenAI also announced plans to gather global investors and is expected to invest tens of billions of dollars in the construction of artificial intelligence infrastructure in the United States, including data centers, turbine generators and semiconductor manufacturing facilities. An OpenAI spokesperson said the facilities are crucial to advanced artificial intelligence and will make them more widely available.
In February, Ultraman mentioned that reducing the shortage of AI chips for training large language models (LLMs) may require $5 trillion to $7 trillion in funding, and by then the global semiconductor market is expected to be within a decade It will reach a scale of $1 trillion.
OpenAI's proposal not only reflects the company's deep thinking about the future development of artificial intelligence, but also conveys the United States' determination to reshape its leadership in the global technological competition.
Points:
OpenAI proposes cooperation between the United States and its allies to enhance the competitiveness of the field of artificial intelligence.
It is proposed to establish an AI infrastructure, focusing on talent, financing and energy needs.
CEO Ultraman Sam stressed that insufficient computing power is a major obstacle to product launch.
OpenAI's proposal reflects the increasingly fierce competition in the field of artificial intelligence in the United States, and also highlights its strategic plan for the future direction of technological development. Through international cooperation and huge investments, the United States has tried to maintain its leading position in the field of artificial intelligence, which will have a profound impact on the global science and technology landscape. However, the success of this plan also faces many challenges, such as the difficulty of coordination of international cooperation and the effective use of huge funds.
