New ‘OpenAI for Government’ Program Delivers AI Technology to Government Agencies

OpenAI has launched OpenAI for Government, unifying federal work and giving U.S. agencies access to ChatGPT Enterprise, ChatGPT Gov and custom national-security models. 

The program consolidates projects with the National Labs, Air Force Research Laboratory, NASA, NIH and Treasury, and opens with a pilot contract worth up to $200 million through the Department of Defense’s Chief Digital and Artificial Intelligence Office. 

An OpenAI spokesperson said the initiative “will cut red tape and let employees focus on service.” A Pennsylvania trial saved staff 105 minutes daily, while Los Alamos, Lawrence Livermore and Sandia already deploy the models for research and cyber-defense across critical missions.
