議会はAIに$100kを支出——うち90%はChatGPTへ
下院の記録によると、議会のAI支出の90%にあたる$100,580がOpenAIに流れ、AnthropicのClaudeは$13,160で大きく水をあけられた。民主党と共和党の事務所間の3:1という支出格差は、ChatGPTが立法運営に不可欠なインフラになりつつあることを示している。
house disbursement records reveal a massive concentration in congressional ai adoption, with openai's chatgpt capturing roughly 90% of the $113,740 total spend through 798 individual transactions. anthropic's claude is a distant second with $13,160, while partisan usage patterns show democratic offices spending $54,165 versus republican offices' $15,782. staffers are deploying these tools for core legislative functions including memo writing, bill summarization, constituent correspondence, and policy research. this consolidation creates a single point of failure for legislative intelligence and amplifies openai's influence over the federal policymaking process.
