"Musk's core claim in this lawsuit is that Altman and OpenAI president Greg Brockman effectively stole a nonprofit, using the $38 million Musk invested to create a private company worth more than $800 billion today."
"OpenAI's legal team has responded to Musk's claims by questioning his true motives, arguing that the Tesla CEO has had 'sour grapes' ever since he failed to assume control of OpenAI in 2017."
"There was documentary evidence that, at several points, Mr. Musk had contemplated seeking to join Sam Altman to the board and offered that option."
"It was part of Mr. Musk's effort to corrupt OpenAI and absorb it into Tesla."
Elon Musk sought to recruit Sam Altman to a Tesla AI lab before resigning from OpenAI's board in February 2018. Musk claims Altman and Greg Brockman misappropriated his $38 million investment, transforming OpenAI into a private company worth over $800 billion. OpenAI's legal team counters by questioning Musk's motives, suggesting he has been resentful since failing to control OpenAI. Evidence presented includes communications between Musk, Altman, and Shivon Zilis, highlighting Musk's alleged intentions to integrate OpenAI into Tesla.
