OpenAI's co-founder and president, Greg Brockman, and his wife Anna, made a $25 million donation to the pro-Trump super PAC "MAGA Inc." in September 2025. This donation was the largest during the six-month fundraising cycle, accounting for nearly one-fourth of the total funds raised. The article highlights the close relationship between tech executives and the Trump administration, which has been actively supporting the AI industry and working to undermine state-level regulations that companies like OpenAI have opposed. The article suggests that Brockman's political donation raises questions about the potential influence of partisan interests on the AI industry and its regulatory landscape.
