Odaily Planet Daily reports that OpenAI founder Sam Altman, in a summary of his latest AMA (Ask Me Anything) session, responded to a question about what would happen if the US government attempted to nationalize OpenAI or other AI projects. Altman stated that he cannot predict the outcome. While government-led development of AGI (Asynchronous Generated Internet of Things) may have been more appropriate in the long run, nationalization is not highly likely given the current trajectory. However, he emphasized that close cooperation between the government and AI companies is "extremely important." He noted that people take security "guarantees" for granted but often underestimate the enormous investment and effort required behind them. He believes this is generally a good thing, but still requires more respect and understanding.
