If the Markets Reject OpenAI and Anthropic, the US Should Nationalize Them
Opinion essay argues the US should nationalize OpenAI and Anthropic into public labs if markets reject their trillion-dollar IPO valuations.
Sanders and Schneier argue in The Guardian that OpenAI and Anthropic may never be sustainably profitable, citing commodity models, short depreciation windows, and free open-source competitors only months behind in capability. They propose converting the labs into US national labs or regulated public utilities if markets reject their recently filed IPOs, which buzz valued at trillions of dollars. They cite public backlash to AI datacenters, Nvidia's slumping stock, and public AI labs in Switzerland, Spain, and Singapore as context.

The push to designate AI as the next critical infrastructure sector
Americans for Responsible Innovation report urges designating AI models, companies and supporting infrastructure as critical infrastructure with CISA as sector lead.
A report from the nonprofit Americans for Responsible Innovation calls for the federal government to declare the AI sector — including frontier model designs, model weights, datacenters, AI hardware and semiconductors — the 17th critical infrastructure sector, with CISA as the lead agency for sector cyberthreats. The authors argue AI is concentrated among a handful of foundation models and interdependent with other sectors, so a single attack on the AI stack could cascade widely, citing incidents like Iranian drone attacks on Amazon datacenters. Former DHS officials note the designation would unlock federal resources such as CDM access and threat intelligence, but warn that picking a lead agency could trigger a bureaucratic turf war with Commerce and Treasury.
