Elon Musk has reactivated his lawsuit against Sam Altman, accusing him and OpenAI President Greg Brockman of manipulating him into co-founding OpenAI under false pretenses.
The lawsuit, filed in federal court, claims Musk was deceived into believing that OpenAI was a non-profit focused on AI safety and openness, only to find that it was actually set up with for-profit affiliates and involved self-dealing. Musk alleges that after investing millions, he was betrayed as OpenAI shifted towards a profit-driven model, with Microsoft becoming a major investor and partner.
The lawsuit echoes similar claims from a previously dropped California suit, emphasizing Musk’s concerns over AI risks and his belief that he was misled about OpenAI’s true nature.
