This is the best summary I could come up with:


The National Science Foundation (NSF) and 10 other agencies are partnering with artificial intelligence developers to fulfill part of President Joe Biden’s executive order on AI, launching a pilot program the administration says will democratize access to research.

The government is working with 15 private sector partners, including Amazon Web Services, Anthropic, AMD, EleutherAI, Google, Hugging Face, IBM, Intel, Meta, Microsoft, Nvidia, OpenAI, and Palantir.

“To continue leading in AI research and development, we must create opportunities across the country to advance AI innovation and strengthen educational opportunities, empowering the nation to shape international standards and igniting economic growth,” NSF director Sethuraman Panchanathan said in the statement.

While the US continues to lead investment and research into generative AI thanks to companies like Google and OpenAI based in the country, other regions are boosting their focus on the technology.

According to the Harvard Business Review, China, the United Kingdom, Japan, and Germany round out the top five countries putting resources into AI development.

However, such close collaboration between the government and the major tech players raised the specter of regulatory capture that will not disappear with the launch of NAIRR.
