I'd eat a shoe if that ever happened, at least under the Trump DOJ.

Two big reasons.

OpenAI has more data, and more ability to tease secrets of politicians out of that data than nearly anyone on earth.

OpenAI has an automated hacking genie that governments want to use against their enemies.

Sam to Trump: "You know, some people have been saying they want to bring charges against me, but you know, I've got the best digital weapons and I'll give you access to them if those lawsuits go away".

Trump's secrets are already out there, and his supporters really don't care. They never will at this point. He's not vulnerable to blackmail.

politicians care about popularity only. this is a matter of natural selection. don't care about popularity=dead.

sam altman is despised, viscerally despised by all ages. model owners are hated by the public.

Presuming these are true, I fail to see how any future politician and/or their administration would be any less susceptible to these issues. Is there some paradigm of virtue out there that I'm not aware of yet who is immune (or at least claims to be)?
