OpenAI said it has “visibility into what we are going to need” regarding chip supply, while emphasizing the need for democratic nations to develop shared safety standards for artificial intelligence.

The startup is working with strategic partners who are “supportive” in terms of providing access to chips, Chief Global Affairs Officer Chris Lehane told Bloomberg Television. He added that OpenAI executives remain vigilant about supply chain issues, ensuring they “sleep with one eye open” to verify availability.
