Elon Musk Files New Lawsuit Against OpenAI and Sam Altman

  • Elon Musk has filed a new lawsuit against OpenAI and its CEO Sam Altman, claiming the AI start-up deviated from its mission to benefit humanity by partnering with Microsoft.
  • The lawsuit, filed in a California federal court, includes allegations that Altman and co-founder Greg Brockman broke federal civil racketeering laws and misled investors about OpenAI's mission.
  • Musk's lawsuit accuses Altman and Brockman of manipulating him into co-founding OpenAI under false pretenses and then shifting the company's focus to profit-driven goals.
  • The legal battle centers on whether OpenAI's latest models have achieved artificial general intelligence (AGI), which could nullify its licensing agreement with Microsoft.
  • This renewed lawsuit is part of an ongoing conflict between Musk and Altman, with Musk also seeking damages for the profits OpenAI earned from his contributions.
