NEW YORK: OpenAI CEO Sam Altman will attend the G7 summit in France later this month, a source told AFP on Wednesday, with artificial intelligence set to feature high on the agenda.
The summit of the Group of Seven leading economies will be held in the French Alpine lakeside resort of Evian on June 15-17, with US President Donald Trump also confirmed as attending. Altman was invited by French President Emmanuel Macron, CNBC said, citing OpenAI. Ahead of the summit, G7 ministers held a digital meeting in Paris last week on online child protection and AI’s energy impact.
They issued a statement that acknowledged the pressure that AI is placing on electricity grids. AI firms’ pursuit of computing capacity is driving demand for energy to power data centres, as well as for rare raw materials for high-end chips. The statement, which also acknowledged AI can be misused by “malicious actors,” will serve as a preparatory document for the G7 leaders’ summit.
OpenAI created the pioneering ChatGPT artificial intelligence platform, but now faces stiff competition from rivals including Google and Anthropic.
