A Wired article reports that OpenAI co-founder and President Greg Brockman has made significant political donations, including $10 million to a super PAC supporting former President Donald Trump. Brockman, who has also donated to Democratic causes, frames these contributions as non-partisan investments in ‘humanity’s future,’ arguing that engaging with all sides of the political spectrum is necessary to advance beneficial artificial intelligence.
