Industrial policy for the Intelligence Age

OpenAI is proposing a new framework for industrial policy as the world approaches superintelligence, including grants and a new discussion hub in Washington, D.C.

As we move toward superintelligence, incremental policy updates won’t be enough. To kick-start this much needed conversation, OpenAI is offering a slate of people-first policy ideas designed to expand opportunity, share prosperity, and build resilient institutions—ensuring that advanced AI benefits everyone.

These ideas are ambitious, but intentionally early and exploratory. We offer them not as a comprehensive or final set of recommendations, but as a starting point for discussion that we invite others to build on, refine, challenge, or choose among through the democratic process. To help sustain momentum, OpenAI is:

welcoming and organizing feedback through [email protected]
establishing a pilot program of fellowships and focused research grants of up to $100,000 and up to $1 million in API credits for work that builds on these and related policy ideas
convening discussions at our new OpenAI Workshop opening in May in Washington, DC.
