In a series of social media posts, OpenAI’s national security advisor Katrina Mulligan revealed a cozy relationship with the Secretary of the Army as the AI behemoth begins to aggressively pursue government business.An ethics expert highlighted concerns for OpenAI competitors about an executive attending the Taylor Swift concert in New Orleans with the Army Secretary, Christine Wormuth.

Less epic were the optics of a senior government official hanging out with a top advisor to an AI company that recently began competing for, and landing, government contracts. Afterin its usage terms in January about banning applications for “military and warfare,” the world’s largest AI company, recently valued at $157 billion, has been aggressively courting the Pentagon.

That close connection could be concern for OpenAI's competitors, said Kathleen Clark, a law professor at Washington University in St. Louis, who focuses on government ethics. “Those competing with OpenAI for contracts may wonder whether the Secretary of the Army needs to recuse from participation in decision-making if she has a close personal relationship with Mulligan,” Clark said.

The contracting efforts have run parallel to a government-focused hiring boom at OpenAI. It appointed former National Security Agency director Paul Nakasone to its board in June, then this monththis month he was joining OpenAI in the same role, pointing to OpenAI’s goal of enabling “democratic institutions to maximally benefit from these technologies, and drive the development of safe AGI for the world.
