Their timing lined up with major releases from their respective companies — in Altman's case, a search product called SearchGPT, and in Zuckerberg's, the latest version of Meta's AI model Llama. And while the two execs weren't exactly debating each other, their pieces suggested different priorities as competition intensifies and the possibility of AI regulation looms. Altman had his mind on geopolitics. He wrote that for the United States to maintain its lead over Russia and China, and for "the democratic vision of AI" to prevail, there will need to be "a U.S.-led global coalition of like-minded countries." He also suggested that some sort of international agency could create norms around AI development and deployment. For his part, Zuckerberg argued for an open approach to AI (like Meta's, of course). He also acknowledged AI's global context, arguing that against rivals like China, "the United States' advantage is decentralized and open innovation."
