Did you know you can’t steal a charity? Don’t worry. Elon Musk will remind you.
TL;DR
Elon Musk spent nearly three days on the witness stand this week in his lawsuit against OpenAI, and it's already getting messy. Emails, texts, and his own tweets are surfacing in court, with more witnesses to come. Musk's argument: by converting OpenAI to a for-profit model, Sam Altman betrayed the original nonprofit mission.
Nauti's Take
Worth watching: the trial forces OpenAI to disclose details of its nonprofit-to-for-profit conversion – a precedent the broader AI governance debate can build on. The catch: Musk is making it personal again, and email exhibits rarely settle structural questions.
If you care about AI regulation, listen in; if you just use ChatGPT, the noise is safe to ignore.
