Strengthening Democratic Oversight in National Security

OpenAI will provide $5 million in training, technical support, and credits to democratic government oversight bodies over the next year.

OpenAI will work with authorized officials to identify where AI tools and technical support could improve oversight.
The company will pilot tools for reviewing the inputs, outputs, and tool use behind AI-assisted government decisions.
Pilot tools will be interoperable or model-agnostic where feasible.
Participating institutions will control the evidence, outputs, and findings, with access limited to authorized government officials.
Civil society and technical experts will inform the tools and OpenAI’s approach.

Government oversight bodies will gain funding, expertise, and tools to examine how AI affects national security decisions.
