Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, participated in a conversation on the World Government Summit (WGS) held in Dubai. Nonetheless, he remained silent concerning the rumor of a $7 trillion (roughly 9,300 trillion won) investment that has recently garnered attention. As a substitute, he said he would release considered one of his open AI models as open source.

Bloomberg reported on the thirteenth (local time) that CEO Altman participated in WSG via video conference and had a conversation with Omar Al Olama, Secretary of State for Artificial Intelligence (AI) of the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

In keeping with this, many of the interviews on this present day were about AI regulations. CEO Altman said that only after testing AI technology first can problems be identified and controlled, and that the UAE can act as a 'regulatory sinkbox'.

“It's very difficult to give you all these regulatory ideas in a vacuum,” he said. “It will be nice to present the longer term to people and allow them to experiment after which see what is smart, what's fallacious and what's right.”

Nonetheless, he remained silent concerning the recent attention-grabbing $7 trillion investment discussion with the UAE and the G42's stance on rumors of Chinese technology leaks.

Nonetheless, he said, “We plan to open source some LLMs,” and “We now have not yet selected which model.”

OpenAI has already released 'Whisper', a voice-to-text model, as open source in 2022. It’s unlikely that major models akin to 'GPT-4' will likely be released as open source.

CEO Altman also said, “We’ll develop tools for poor countries that can’t afford the large costs of developing their very own AI systems.”
