OpenAI's collaboration with the U.S. Department of Defense has sparked controversy.

OpenAI's partnership with the U.S. Department of Defense sparked widespread controversy. OpenAI CEO Altman publicly apologized on the social media platform X, admitting that he had hastily announced the collaboration after a competitor's partnership with the Department of Defense broke down, which he deemed opportunistic and rash. However, just days after the agreement was reached, on March 2, OpenAI announced new terms to supplement the Department of Defense cooperation agreement.
