The company OpenAI wants to give shares to the US government. The shares are 5 percent of the firm. Other firms like Anthropic might give shares too. This lowers the pressure from politics. The US government worries about safety in AI. Some firms released new tech later for this reason.
Boss Sam Altman has an idea. He wants to create a state fund. A state fund is a big money pot for the state. He uses the Alaska Permanent Fund as a model. In Alaska people get money from oil sales. People could get money from AI profits too. Sam Altman talked to Donald Trump about this.
Donald Trump likes the idea. He calls it a good thing. Politician Bernie Sanders wants shares too. He wants more shares for the state. Many people feel doubt about AI. They fear for their jobs. A state fund could increase trust.
