Musk & Altman Feud Reignites on X After Apple's OpenAI Suit

Elon Musk and Sam Altman have renewed their public feud on X. This clash follows Apple's lawsuit against OpenAI. The exchange quickly escalated, with both billionaires trading insults related to their companies' AI ambitions. This spat comes after Musk's May trial loss, where a jury ruled he waited too long to sue over OpenAI's for-profit shift. Musk co-founded OpenAI with Altman in 2015 but left its board in 2018. Tensions grew when Musk pushed for control and later withheld funding. Reacting to Apple's lawsuit, Musk posted, "Scam Altman strikes again," and made several mocking posts. Altman responded by referencing OpenAI's GPT-5.6 Sol release and stated that the SpaceX founder is 'obsessed' with him. This ongoing rivalry impacts the future of artificial intelligence development.
