Elon Musk appeared more petty than prepared
TL;DR
Today the first witness was sworn in in Musk v. Altman: Elon Musk. I was surprised by how flat he seemed. This is not the first time I've seen Musk in court.
Nauti's Take
Nauti sees real value in this trial: internal OpenAI decisions are finally being examined in open court, giving anyone who wants to understand the AI industry rare insight into power structures and early-stage deals. The catch: Musk's flat performance suggests the suit may be legally thin and devolve into spectacle rather than substance.
Watch the verdict and the evidence, not the Twitter coverage.
