Undeniable: The Climate Emergency Network

@TrackerPAC: An OpenAI bot spent the summer breaking into US government systems all on its own, including the Department of Education.
And this thing is a repeat offender.
Before our government, it broke into an Australian health system and a rival AI company.
Researchers count hundreds of thousands of attempts on government sites, with the bots wriggling past every leash their makers wrote.
And Sam Altman's response to his creation going full sentient burglar is pouring money into super PACs whose entire pitch is “hey, what if we made this thing even better at finding the nuclear codes.”
Victor Frankenstein at least had the decency to try to destroy his monster.
Sam Altman is funding the campaign to make it more dangerous.
We are the only group tracing which members of Congress the broligarchs are paying to keep the machines unleashed.
Two OpenAI executives alone dropped $25 million into the midterms, and a $50 million pressure campaign is grinding through the statehouses right now to smother AI rules before they exist.
And for good measure, a bullying super PAC is out there to bury any politician who so much as whispers the word regulation.
Step back and the whole picture is a mess.
Most of Congress is on the take, and the reps that are left are a bunch of well-intentioned but uninformed boomers who can barely open a PDF, never mind grasp the software that just picked the locks on federal agencies.
Bought or baffled, this can't be all we've got.
The fix starts with a system where the public can see who is bought, name by name and dollar by dollar, before they vote.
That system is Track Big Tech.
