The General Services Administration has reaped a lot of attention from the enterprise agreements they have signed with artificial intelligence providers like OpenAI, Anthropic and Google. GSA's arrangements with OpenAI and Anthropic set a price of $1-a-year per agency for access to their flagship AI products.
