Musk Tried to Settle OpenAI Lawsuit Days Before Trial

Elon Musk tried to settle his lawsuit with OpenAI just two days before their courtroom battle began. This is according to a new court filing from OpenAI. Here's the thing: Musk messaged OpenAI President Greg Brockman on April 25th, asking about a settlement. When Brockman suggested both sides drop their claims, Musk reportedly replied, "By the end of this week, you and Sam will be the most hated men in America. If you insist, so it will be." Musk is suing OpenAI, claiming they breached a charitable trust by moving from a nonprofit to a for-profit structure. OpenAI says Musk himself pushed for a for-profit model and is only suing because he lost control of the company. The judge denied OpenAI's request to use Musk's messages as evidence. The trial is ongoing, with more testimonies expected. This legal fight could reshape the future of AI development and competition.
