Sam Altman Declares Himself Politically Homeless

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman declared himself 'politically homeless,' expressing disappointment that the Democratic Party has shifted away from pro-innovation and entrepreneurial values. Posting on X for the Fourth of July, Altman emphasized his pride in America and advocated for 'techno-capitalism,' supporting both wealth creation and broad wealth distribution. He criticized current political rhetoric targeting billionaires and argued that policy should elevate everyone through science, technology, and markets. Altman said he no longer feels the Democratic Party supports the culture of innovation and entrepreneurship essential for American success. He believes education and a market-driven approach are vital to national progress. Altman's libertarian-leaning views reflect broader dissatisfaction among tech leaders with both major U.S. political parties.
