Microsoft and OpenAI have announced a new initiative designed to support human rights defenders and journalists using artificial intelligence. The program, named "Daybreak," is intended to help these groups protect essential services and critical infrastructure.
The companies stated that they are committing $1 billion in total to subsidize access to the Daybreak tool. This funding will cover access to the software, training, technical support, and strategic partnerships. The goal is to provide the necessary resources for these groups to effectively utilize AI in their work.
Microsoft and OpenAI emphasized that the initiative focuses on providing the tools and support needed to safeguard vital services and infrastructure against digital threats.
