Well, the US free market religion ensures that everything in the US are based on 100% profit and corruption. All big tech both bow to, and participate in the US 'deep state'. I have zero direct clue about the claims here, but we know that liberal big tech goes for profit whenever they can (rare cases force).

As an example: The RAND corporation is a think thank that are deeply linked to deep state and the military industrial complex + US attacks around the world They work on time scales of decades and try to grow US Capitalist hegemony by all means possible. RAND have been the main architects of most of US foreign policy (incl. Ukraine/Russia and Taiwan/China and all 'color revolutions') for many many years. RAND had a board member in openai (forgot her name) while all the scheming/firing went on.

Now, nobody knows anything for sure, but Rand doesn't sit there for their joy, or for instant profit, they sit there to observe/control the development of openai's products, and make sure it is used primarily for US hegemonic goals. Deep state (who/whatever they turn out to be) have huge control of all US corporations and also sit on all the big media and therefore the narrative. It would imho be naive to believe that the psychopathic US elite haven't at least tried the claims in this meme. How successful is another matter tho.
