Strengthening democratic oversight in national security
OpenAI
OpenAI launched an initiative to provide government institutions with tools, training, and expertise for democratic oversight of AI in national security applications. The program includes funding and resources to help elected officials and civil society understand and govern AI deployment in defense contexts. This aims to ensure elected bodies can effectively scrutinize AI use in security matters rather than leaving decisions solely to technical experts.
