- On June 16, 2025, OpenAI secured a $200 million contract from the U.S. Defense Department to develop artificial intelligence tools, with most of the work expected to take place in the Washington, D.C. area.
- This contract follows White House guidance issued in April promoting a competitive American AI marketplace while exempting national security and defense systems from those rules.
- OpenAI will utilize the funding to create advanced prototype AI technologies designed to support key national defense needs across both combat operations and administrative functions.
- By March, OpenAI had reached 500 million users engaging weekly, and by June reported an annualized revenue of $10 billion; additionally, the company secured a $40 billion funding round led by SoftBank, which valued it at $300 billion.
- The contract is expected to conclude by July 2026, and the pilot program may influence how AI transforms DoD administrative operations and support service members’ healthcare and cyber defense needs.
