OpenAI, an artificial intelligence (AI) company, is exploring the possibilities of introducing their technology into the Japanese government systems. With the current global situation involving bans and uncertainties, OpenAI received positive remarks from Chief Cabinet Secretary Hirokazu Matsuno when Sam Altman, OpenAI CEO, visited Japan. Positive commitment from the Prime Minister Fumio Kishida has also been recorded.

During the Tokyo press conference on Monday, Altman was pretty fired up about the cooperative relationship between OpenAI and the local talent and resources to create something extraordinary for the Japanese people. Both Altman and Kishida discussed the potency of AI technology and how to reduce any negative aspects or risks connected with OpenAI. Altman highlighted the company's determination to improve their Japanese language model and perception of cultural components.

The Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada (OPC) declared on April 4 that an investigation on OpenAI is undergoing following a complaint from an anonymous individual about the company collecting and utilizing personal information without approval. Philippe Dufresne has accentuated that their department is intently monitoring AI technology to guarantee Canadians’ privacy right.

OpenAI's newfound support in Japan is a sign of good faith and assurance, no matter the data breach in Italy and the privacy issues in Canada. Japan is leading the way when it comes to government adoption of AI technology and it's quite impressive. In spite of all the great changes, OpenAI still needs to address the privacy and cybersecurity concerns.
