OpenAI CEO Sam Altman Declares Political Homelessness in July 4 Post, Cites Support for Techno-Capitalism and Musk's Third Party

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman declared himself "politically homeless" in a July 4 post, expressing disillusionment with the Democratic Party. Altman criticized Democrats for no longer fostering a "culture of innovation and entrepreneurship," which he associates with his belief in "techno-capitalism." His remarks come amid broader political shifts, including Elon Musk's proposal of a third party, which some interpret as a potential new platform for pro-AI pragmatists. Altman's statement highlights a growing sentiment among some tech leaders who feel alienated from traditional political alignments.
