OpenAI CEO Sam Altman sits down with Shannon Bream to discuss the pros and cons of artificial intelligence and the need to stay ahead of China’s AI industry.
OpenAI is partnering with defense technology company Anduril Industries to develop and deploy advanced technology Artificial Intelligence (AI) measures to protect the United States and its allies from the looming threat of lethal drones.
“By bringing together the advanced models of OpenAI and the advanced security systems of Anduril and the Lattice software program, this partnership aims to improve the national security that protects the US and allied forces from attacks by unmanned drones and other aerial devices,” OpenAI said. Wednesday press.
Amidst the rapid rise of aerial threats, OpenAI says the new partnership will focus on improving the control of US unmanned aerial systems (CUAS), including their ability to detect and respond to threats in real time.
The two companies plan to explore how they can move forward Types of AI it can demystify time-sensitive data, improve human performance and enhance situational awareness.

OpenAI plans to train AI models on Anduril CUAS threats with a library of tasks – an idea that partners insist “will ensure the success of the project.”
“The fast race between the United States and China in the advancement of AI makes this a critical time. If the United States gives up, we risk losing the technology that has strengthened our nation’s security for decades,” OpenAI continued.
The AI research organization also said that today’s decisions about national security will determine whether the US remains a leader in the 21st century or a threat “to adversaries who do not share our commitment to freedom and democracy and can use AI to threaten other countries. .”
“Anduril creates defense systems that meet the needs of the US and allied forces,” said Brian Schimpf, co-founder & CEO of Anduril Industries. Press release. “Our partnership with OpenAI will allow us to use their global expertise in artificial intelligence to address the gaps that are needed in Air Defense around the world. Together, we are committed to creating reliable solutions that help military and intelligence personnel make faster, more accurate decisions in high-pressure situations. .

Anduril and OpenAI said their plans will be subject to “strong oversight” and “well-defined policies that emphasize trust and accountability.”
“OpenAI builds AI to benefit as many people as possible and supports US-led efforts to ensure that technology adheres to democratic principles,” he said. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman he added. “Our partnership with Anduril will help ensure that OpenAI technology protects the US military and will help the national security community better understand and use this technology to keep our citizens safe and secure.”
Altman he recently told “Fox News Sunday” that he looks forward to working with the incoming administration, adding that he thinks President-elect Donald Trump will succeed in helping America become a world leader in AI infrastructure.
But Altman also acknowledged the challenges of AI, warning that it is possible for bad actors to use the technology to disrupt systems, and for US adversaries to create new national security challenges with new forms of power.

The U.S. has experienced a number of air disasters in the past two years.
For more than two weeks in December 2023, it is over a dozen unidentified drones was cleared to fly at Langley Air Force Base.
Two months before Langley’s arrival, in October 2023, five drones flew over the Nevada National Security Site, which is used to test nuclear weapons. US officials did not know who was behind those drones.
A Chinese surveillance balloon flew over the US for a week last year before the Air Force fired on the coast.
