OpenAI has formed a strategic partnership with the UK government to explore the deployment of artificial intelligence in various sectors including justice, education, and security. The Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) aims to collaborate on identifying opportunities for advanced AI models across government and the private sector. OpenAI is also developing an enterprise AI business to meet the specific data security needs of technology and business leaders, ensuring compliance with UK data protection regulations. ChatGPT's adoption is growing rapidly with over 600 million weekly users worldwide.
While the public large language model (LLM) can be accessed by anyone and is trained on publicly accessible data, OpenAI is building out an enterprise AI business. This aims to serve the needs of technology and business leaders, who have specific requirements for authorising access to internal data and need reassurances that their organisation's data will not be used to train a public LLM. This is a significant factor in adhering to enterprise cyber security policies and meeting the public and private sector UK General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and Data Protection Act (DPA) requirements that ensure citizen data is not shared.
Matt Weaver, who leads the solutions engineering team for Europe at OpenAI, says ChatGPT is used by over 600 million people every week around the world. 'We're getting around a billion messages a day to the platform. It's amazing adoption and usage,' he says.
The Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT) and OpenAI will see collaboration between the government and the maker of ChatGPT to identify opportunities for how advanced AI models can be deployed throughout government and the private sector, and inform government policy to support AI infrastructure.
