- Openai reveals Chatgpt Gov, built for the US Government
- AI -Chatboten can help with summary, translation and more
- Chatgpt Gov will be able to provide “non-public, sensitive information”
Openai has released a new version of Chatgpt, built tailored to the US government.
Chatgpt ‘GoV’ can be fed ‘non-public, sensitive information’ on secure self-hosted cloud computing platforms, allowing agencies to comply with the requirements for cyber security.
Government workers will be able to create and share custom GPT models for specialized tasks, with the GOV version, which also implements an admin console for CIOs and IT teams.
Chat with the government
Openai claims over 90,000 users from up to 3,500 federal, state and local authorities have sent over 18 million messages on Chat GPT since 2024 as part of their daily work across AI tools, basic coding, translation services and much more.
Visually similar to the service Chatgpt Enterprise, where the biggest difference is that Chatgpt Gov can host the internal Microsoft Azure Commercial Cloud or Azure Government Community Cloud Infrastructure.
As always, there are legitimate concerns about the security of using AI within the government, especially when you go into sensitive information that Openai refers to users to its use policy that Chatgpt Gov is also subject to.
Demonstrations made for the press of Openai Solutions Engineer Aaron Wilkowitz showed Chatgpt Gov Create a five-week plan for a Trump administration employee, who was then analyzed by GPT after the addition of several notes. Wilkowitz also demonstrated his translation skills by getting it prepared a memo about job plan and then translating it into several languages.
Chatgpt Enterprise is currently subject to the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (Fedramp) test before it can be used on the types of sensitive data it could be fed if adopted. Openai CPO Kevin Weil said (via CNBC) That although there was no timeline in place for Chatgpt Enterprise’s Fedramp approval, Openai works with the new administration to cut through some of the bureaucracy.
“I know President Trump also looks at how we can potentially streamline it because it’s a way to get more modern software tools to the government and help the government run more efficiently. So we are very excited about it, ”Weil said.
Openai’s CEO Sam Altman reportedly donated $ 1 million to President Trump’s inauguration fund along with Openai’s partner company Microsoft, which provides many of the systems, software and cloud services that the government needs to work.
