OpenAI for countries

The TLDR
OpenAI’s new “OpenAI for Countries” program supports nations in building AI infrastructure aligned with democratic values. The initiative includes localized ChatGPT versions, partnerships for national data centers, and safeguards for privacy and free expression—marking a major step in ethical, globally distributed AI development.

In a world where artificial intelligence is increasingly influencing the foundations of education, health and political power, OpenAI is taking a strong stand for democratic values with “OpenAI for Countries”.

This new initiative aims to support countries in building their own AI infrastructures - with localized versions of ChatGPT tailored to national needs. The focus is on applications in education and healthcare. At the same time, democratic principles such as freedom of expression, data protection and the prevention of state surveillance are to be upheld.

The project is part of OpenAI's larger “Stargate” strategy, which aims to build global data centers. This involves working closely with governments to ensure that AI technologies are used responsibly and in line with democratic values.

This opens up a significant opportunity for the AI community: to help shape an AI future that is not characterized by centralized control, but by transparency, diversity and ethical responsibility.

Why it matters: “OpenAI for Countries” offers an alternative to authoritarian AI models and promotes the development of AI systems that respect democratic values. This is crucial to ensure a fair and inclusive technological future for all.

JPMorgan – Coach AI as a revenue booster

JPMorgan reports that its Coach AI system increased sales by 20% during the April turmoil and guides advisors to relevant analysis 95% faster. By 2030, this should result in 50% more customers being served and $1.5 billion in cost savings already. The scaling of Gen-AI from pilot cases to a measurable P&L driver signals a turning point: data and computing capital are replacing relationship capital as the central source of returns in wealth and asset management.

DIW study – AI reads the ECB

A Berlin-based research team has been evaluating every ECB statement since 2019 using a transformer model and has increased the hit rate for future interest rate moves from 70% to 80%. This algorithmizes traditional “central bank watching”; markets react earlier, yield curves price moves more quickly, and the ECB must further refine its communication. For investors, this creates a new information arbitrage that more closely links monetary policy and volatility.

Business Insider overview – Wall Street scales up Gen-AI

A recent BI analysis shows how banks, hedge funds, and private equity firms are scaling up generative AI from point tools to enterprise-wide platforms: JPMorgan is budgeting $17 billion, Goldman is rolling out chat assistants, and Point72 is automating analyst routines. The move from testing to process automation is shifting margin sources from human capital to data capital. Falling labor costs, growing GPU capex, and new regulatory and cyber risks are structurally changing valuation models.
