I can’t read the article due to the paywall, but I think Brockman becoming the largest donor to the MAGA PAC is really about regulatory capture, and the timing is to protect OpenAI from new competition they didn’t see coming.
Anthropic also wants regulatory capture but they’re doing it differently: they are partnering with religious organizations to push safety / ethics narratives, that they hope will end up in law. The religious groups are a vehicle to get public support for their desired regulations.
Without such protections, neither company can avoid being commoditized. The Chinese models are close behind. And traditional big tech controls distribution. So what’s their moat?
