Anthropic Employees Donate At Six Times Google's Post-IPO Donor Rate
OpenAI staff follow at over twice Google's rate, and 28 of them gave Alex Bores $173,000 in a single day.
- Fifty-nine percent of Anthropic's federal donors live in San Francisco, versus 18% of Google's cohort.
- OpenAI's Greg Brockman gave $12.5 million each to Leading the Future and Trump's MAGA Inc.
- Thirteen Anthropic and OpenAI employees sent Xavier Becerra $500,000 in his campaign's final two weeks.
Why it matters: An industry moves money into Washington before Washington finishes writing the rules that will bind it.
