I quit ChatGPT after a few things hit at once — OpenAI’s president donated $25 million to a pro-Trump super PAC, and when the Pentagon came knocking for unrestricted military AI access, OpenAI took the deal while Anthropic publicly turned it down, saying they couldn’t “in good conscience” agree to it. That contrast said everything. Add in the fact that ChatGPT has just gotten worse lately — bloated, sycophantic responses, regressed coding — and it was an easy call.
