The more I reflect on this article, the more it seems that companies like OpenAI have quickly gained influence through lobbying, which is somewhat alarming. It raises concerns about how vulnerable the government may now be to aggressive lobbying efforts by corporations looking to profit from federal budgets—essentially, massive sums of money.

With recent claims about OpenAI's growth, I'm questioning if they expect that most of the growth will come from government contracts rather than just general subscriptions. While enterprise companies are slow and cautious about LLM integrations, the government can be an easy target for current hype.
