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(opens in a new window) 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:
1. welcoming and organizing feedback through [email protected] 2. 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 3. convening discussions at our new OpenAI Workshop opening in May in Washington, DC.
