OpenAI Staff Donate Over $215,000 to PAC Opposing AI Effort Backed by President Greg Brockman

A group of OpenAI employees and one former staffer have contributed more than $215,000 to Guardrails Alliance, a super PAC pushing for tighter regulation of frontier AI—directly countering a pro-industry political network personally backed by the company's own president, Greg Brockman. The donations, detailed by WIRED, lay bare an unusual public split between rank-and-file researchers and one of the company's most senior leaders over how aggressively Washington should oversee artificial intelligence.
