OpenAI Eyes NATO Unclassified Networks After Pentagon Deal

• OpenAI is considering deploying its AI technology on NATO’s unclassified networks, according to a person familiar with the matter.
• This development follows OpenAI's recent agreement with the Pentagon to deploy its AI within the US defence system.
• OpenAI CEO Sam Altman initially misstated the NATO deal would cover classified networks, later clarified to unclassified networks.
• The Pentagon deal came after rival AI firm Anthropic was removed due to a standoff over AI usage for mass surveillance or autonomous weapons.
• OpenAI clarified its systems won't be used for domestic surveillance or by intelligence agencies like NSA, acknowledging reputational risks.
