Except the reason Altman is so upset has nothing to do with this very valid discussion.

As I commented elsewhere:

Fuck Sam Altmann, the fartsniffer who convinced himself & a few other dumb people that his company really has the leverage to make such demands.

He doesn't care about democracy, he's just scared because a chinese company offers what his company offers, but for a fraction of the price/resources.

He's scared for his government money and basically begging for one more handout “to save democracy”.

Yes, I’ve been listening to Ed Zitron.
