OpenAI plans to roll out a series of policy initiatives and public relations campaigns immediately after the U.S. midterm elections on November 3, to adapt to potential shifts in Washington’s political landscape and shape the artificial intelligence (AI) policy debate in the 2028 presidential election. Chris Lehane, OpenAI’s Chief Global Affairs Officer, noted that the company has been preparing related policy proposals since August, which are set to launch during Congress’ “lame duck” session starting November 9. Specific measures include: advocating for mandatory safety safeguards for the most advanced AI systems, establishing “speed limits” for AI development to ensure human oversight; easing barriers to data center construction via community partnership agreements and state-level legislative proposals, and repositioning new data facilities as “AI computing power parks”; expanding AI education, training and employment support to help workers navigate technological changes; and pushing for U.S.-led global AI standard-setting rooted in democratic values. Lehane views AI as a core issue in the 2028 U.S. presidential election.
