Closing time
TL;DR
Today saw closing arguments in the Musk v. Altman trial — and it was a demolition derby. Musk's lawyer Steven Molo stumbled repeatedly: he accidentally called co-defendant Greg Brockman "Greg Altman," wrongly claimed Musk wasn't seeking money and had to be corrected by the judge. OpenAI counsel Sarah Eddy calmly countered by laying out the mountain of evidence in chronological order.
Nauti's Take
Worth noting: the trial offers rare public glimpses into early OpenAI's inner workings — valuable raw material for any governance debate around AI nonprofits. The catch: stumbling lawyers and demolition-derby vibes drown out the structural questions.
Anyone serious about AI accountability should read past the headlines to the actual legal substance — this case will set precedent for future nonprofit-to-for-profit transformations.
