OpenAI announces more secure ChatGPT for government workers, Trump administration

OpenAI on Tuesday announced a new ChatGPT system for U.S. government workers that it calls more secure than its Enterprise offering.

ChatGPT Gov will allow for government agencies to feed nonpublic, sensitive data into the platform while operating in their own hosting environments. OpenAI said that self-hosting enables agencies to manage their own security, privacy, and compliance requirements.

It’s unclear when ChatGPT Gov will be available for government customers. Still, some government workers are already using ChatGPT today. Since the beginning of 2024, more than 90,000 users across more than 3,500 federal, state, and local government agencies have sent upwards of 18 million messages on ChatGPT to support their work, the company said.

“By making our products available to the U.S. government, we aim to ensure AI serves the national interest and the public good, aligned with democratic values, while empowering policymakers to responsibly integrate these capabilities to deliver better services to the American people,” OpenAI wrote in a press release.

The announcement of ChatGPT Gov comes a week into President Donald Trump’s new administration. OpenAI leader Sam Altman attended Trump’s inauguration last week in Washington, D.C., alongside several other Big Tech leaders. The two reportedly have spoken about the importance of developing artificial intelligence in the U.S. Altman, who donated to Trump’s inauguration fund, has also expressed admiration for the president.

“I’m not going to agree with him on everything, but I think he will be incredible for the country in many ways!” he wrote on X last Wednesday.
