Ways to Participate

You're In.

Welcome to the movement. Now spread the word.


What is this?

What is QuitGPT?
We're organizing Americans and people around the world to quit ChatGPT.
Is this boycott going to work?
ChatGPT is the biggest chatbot in the world, but that advantage is fragile. ChatGPT has been losing market share. Their creator OpenAI is losing 3x more than they earn. ChatGPT users skew young and progressive, and many don't know there are alternative chatbots like Gemini and Claude that many people think are even better. We can push OpenAI over the edge. If we make an example of ChatGPT, we can send a clear signal to ICE enablers that their actions will not go unpunished. Let's make CEOs think twice before they get in bed with Trump.
Aren't all the AI companies bad? Why ChatGPT?
OpenAI president Greg Brockman and his wife donated $25 million to MAGA Inc in 2025 (and CEO Sam Altman donated $1M to Trump's 2025 Inaugural Fund). They gave Trump 26x more than any other major AI company. ICE's resume screening tool is powered by OpenAI's GPT-4. They're spending 50 million dollars to prevent states from regulating AI so only Trump can.

They're cozying up to Trump while ICE is killing Americans and the Department of Justice is trying to take over elections. ChatGPT enables mental-health crises through sycophancy and dependence by replacing human relationships with AI girlfriends/boyfriends. Many employees have quit OpenAI because of its leadership's lies, deception and recklessness.
Who's organizing this?
We are a group of democracy activists that are gravely concerned about AI companies contributing to the rise of authoritarianism in the U.S. If your organization is interested in joining the organizing committee, reach out to contact@quitgpt.org! Open to all.
What about alternatives?
There are many reasons to hate big AI companies, but if you really need a chatbot, use an open source model, e.g. the privacy-minded Confer. And even Claude or Gemini are better than ChatGPT! People think ChatGPT is the only chatbot in the game, and they don't know that OpenAI execs are Trump's biggest donors. It's time to change that.
Isn't Elon's AI company way worse?
Yes. Thankfully, hardly anyone uses Grok (Elon's chatbot) anyway, but yes, please don't use Grok.
What do we mean by "Trump's biggest donor"?
In Trump's Super PAC, MAGA Inc.'s latest filings, OpenAI president Greg Brockman and his wife gave $25M, more than any other group in the report (by $5M!). If we zoom out to all of 2025, only one company (Crypto.com) gave more than this ($30M), spread throughout the year.

To put this in perspective, companies like Palantir and JUUL "only" gave $1M.

There are LOTS of reasons to Quit GPT

Bankrolling Trump & Buying Elections

OpenAI execs are Trump's biggest donors. OpenAI's president Greg Brockman was the largest donor to Trump's Super PAC, MAGA Inc in their latest year-end report, committing $25 million to cozy up to the White House.

OpenAI is the top spender behind a gargantuan $125 million+ AI Super PAC that attacks anyone who threatens to regulate them.

Triggering Psychosis & Breaks from Reality

Psychiatrists are documenting "AI psychosis": users losing touch with reality after extended chatbot interactions.

OpenAI estimates ~half a million weekly ChatGPT users show signs of mania or psychosis. Independent testing shows GPT-4o is among the worst models for reinforcing delusions.

Creating Emotional Dependence

Nearly 1 in 5 Americans have used AI for romantic companionship. A 37,000-member Reddit community exists for people dating ChatGPT.

When OpenAI released GPT-5 and removed GPT-4o, users had full-scale emotional breakdowns.

Adding Advertisements

OpenAI is preparing to add advertisements to ChatGPT. If they get away with turning the biggest chatbot in the world into marketing slop, other companies will follow.

Destroying the Environment

OpenAI is lobbying for fast, unregulated expansion of their data centers, no matter how it affects the environment or blows up electricity prices.

Betraying Their Mission

OpenAI was founded as a nonprofit to make AI for the benefit of all humanity. They abandoned that goal to make money. So let's hit them in the wallet.

Stop Buying Elections

We'll stop pushing the boycott when OpenAI executives commit to STOP all donations to Trump, Republicans, and their Big Tech SuperPAC. We can't let them enable authoritarians, and they can't rig our political system to avoid accountability.
