Altman vs. Musk: OpenAI Control Battle Heats Up

Sam Altman has spoken out against Elon Musk's claims about OpenAI in a landmark trial. Altman testified that Musk himself sought to control OpenAI in its early years. He recounted a moment where Musk allegedly said control of OpenAI should pass to his children if he died, which made Altman "extremely uncomfortable." Altman also addressed Musk's accusation that he "stole a charity," stating it's difficult to comprehend that framing. He described a "moral boost" at the company when Musk became less involved. This trial, now in its third week, could significantly impact OpenAI's future and leadership.
