OpenAI co-founder and President Greg Brockman has made significant political donations, including $10 million to a super PAC supporting former President Donald Trump. In an interview, Brockman framed these contributions as non-partisan investments in the future of humanity, stating his primary goal is to ensure artificial general intelligence (AGI) is developed safely and benefits all people. He argues that engaging with major political figures and parties, regardless of personal alignment, is a necessary strategy to influence global AI policy and governance.
