On Wednesday, July 16th, 2026, the AI safety super PAC Guardrails Alliance announced it received eight contributions totaling $248,000. This funding came from a group of current and former OpenAI employees who collectively donated more than $245,000. Their contributions are directed toward Guardrails Alliance, a super PAC focused on countering Leading the Future (LTF), a committee funded in part by Greg Brockman, the president and co-founder of OpenAI.

The donations highlight a division within the OpenAI community regarding AI policy and safety advocacy efforts. Guardrails Alliance aims to promote AI safety measures, positioning itself against LTF's agenda, which is supported by Brockman.
