Americans will get this before free healthcare.
According to the Malta Digital Innovation Authority, the course is designed to help people understand what AI is, what it can and cannot do, and how to use it responsibly at home and at work.
So now they need to explain people why they need AI.
In September 2025, OpenAI announced a partnership with the Greek government to bring its technology to secondary schools and start-ups across the country.
I didn’t know Greece plans to give digital drugs to children for free.
Isn’t Greece still doing hella austerity because they owe Germany money or is this my America showing
As far as I remember Greece owns money to everyone and their government force people to work more to pay interest. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cgjd76pw79do
At least they paid the IMF mafia.
This ai deal sounds like a gross misappropriation of public funds then. There must be context I’m missing, this just sounds stupid.
OpenAI just follows Microsoft path - offer AI for free to children so they get addicted and demand it when they will be looking for work.
That would make more sense if Greece and OpenAI weren’t competing for “most money borrowed without a real plan.” I didn’t see in the article who was paying for it (maybe a comprehension fail on my end) but I suppose it doesn’t really matter because both OpenAI and Greece carry hundreds of billions in debt.
I guess from the OpenAI standpoint they can just give it for free so they have the point to push their agenda in other countries.
Wow, this is state-level data harvesting agreements with private companies, in action. 100% they get access to “anonymized” usage data.
Is ChatGPT Plus really important ?
No
That’s what I thought…
It’s weird that something so revolutionary has to be shoved into people’s faces to be successful.
I don’t hear much about Malta, the last thing that sticks out in my mind was the Journalist investigating the Panama Papers and local ties that got car bombed.
I’m getting the impression that rich criminal neo-liberals have a lot of sway there.
Sounds like citizens of malta can now train chatgpt for free now
Naw, they won’t be satisfied until you pay to train their AI.
*will
Let’s offload a whole country’s cognitive load and see what happens! Why not?
Citizens and residents registered with Malta’s online identity system can apply to get access to ChatGPT Plus
What’s the benefit because that just sounds like a shit sandwich
So stupid
why?
And what is their power grid running on goat turds? Because I’m pretty sure there is an energy crisis in that part of the world.

The article doesn’t say anything about them running an AI data center. No one is making that claim.
Okay then, we’re is the data center servicing them or internet servers for Malta?
They’re not building AI data centers in nice places like Malta or Europe. They’re all clustered in the backwards shit hole country between Canada and Mexico.
Apparently Malta already has the Internet. Surprising, I know.

Yeah we don’t even have internet in Europe and only recently started importing electricity from the great US, leader of the technological world.
In all seriousness, obviously Europe is filled with data centres too. This site lists ~4000 data centers in the US and ~3000 in Europe.

How many of those are AI data centers though? Those consume an order of magnitude more power.
You dont need an AI-specific datacenter to have a datacenter serving AI.
Missing the point. This has only become an issue since specific AI data centres have become a thing. My point still stands, I dont believe there are any specific AI centres in Europe which use a hell of a lot more energy, generate more noise and more pollution
The issue being discussed was Malta running out of energy because of AI data centers. It will not. Nor will we in the rest of Europe. Regular data centers aren’t filled to the brim with power hungry GPU servers. They’re also not very good for running AI workloads.
And what is their power grid running on goat turds? Because I’m pretty sure there is an energy crisis in that part of the world.
ChatGPT would most likely connect to US servers.
isn’t Malta filled and powered by some of the worlds richest and most corrupt men?
I’ve only ever met one person from Malta, 20+ years ago at a strip club in Portland. He had a lot of money to throw around, kept buying everyone drinks, then invited some of us and some strippers back to his hotel. We drank some more, did some coke. The next morning I stumbled out of the wreckage to head back to my hotel and found him standing in the middle of a skywalk, wearing just chonies and a bedsheet bandana, talking with his butt like Ace Ventura, flinging sausages he’d swiped from the breakfast lounge, declaring “the great ass gives you sausage!” 🤷♂️
It’s also associated with crusaders- it was one of the last strongholds of the Knights Hospitaliers after they looted everything. Which might’s be part of why
It’s also got a tax system that treats private jets favourably IIRC. Or maybe it was yachts.
Most watercraft that are dodging shit are usually registered in Seychelles. I’m sure some are also registered in Malta too, but the VAST majority are Seychelles.
“Offers”, hmm? Gotta wonder what the elected officials backing this were offered. 🤮
PISS country I guess
