Training AIs on quality unbiased data should be looked at as being a pubic good in the classic economic sense.
Governments would find it difficult to justify paying for training an AI for a specific government need or program at that cost. To do it to establish a public resource is something different. Much more akin to why countries have statistical agencies and structured data repositories.
Until governments put money to openly train open source models from trusted and vetted data, this is the best we have.
Government should put money and resources like for basic research into LLMs that can be the base for model of public interest
This is an excellent point.
