OpenAI CEO believes that one of the most serious problems for the high-tech industry at the moment is the amount of energy needed for powering artificial intelligence systems. To solve this problem, Sam Altman intends to form a global coalition.

According to insiders, the OpenAI CEO held meetings with officials in several Western countries. It is also reported that this week he spoke with officials and investors in the United Arab Emirates. Moreover, according to preliminary information, Mr. Altman will soon hold meetings with legislators and representatives of the sphere of national security and intelligence in Washington.
