Jack might not actually be (entirely) wrong. Central govs want centrally controlled AI, and would-be centrally-controlled-AI developers are finding that they can't catch up to OpenAI. This means that the would-be's may have a vested interest in the development of OSAI in partnerships (which they will likely try to co-opt). So funding will go into OSAI but they will try to control it's development and direction.

It's not too dissimilar to what we've been seeing with the recent institutional acknowledgement and "adoption" of bitcoin (albeit via ETFs).

It's a road full of snares, but it's the road we have to walk down.
