OpenAI and the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) announced a joint effort to broaden access to artificial intelligence tools for eligible government entities across federal, state, local, and tribal levels.
Under the arrangement, qualifying governments will receive $0 license fees and a 50% discount on usage, lowering the cost barrier for public-sector adoption of AI.
The partnership also includes expanded cyber defense support, aimed at strengthening the security posture of government agencies as they integrate AI into their operations.
The announcement did not specify which specific OpenAI products or services are covered, the duration of the offer, or the criteria for eligibility beyond being a federal, state, local, or tribal government.
