Musk, who invested up to $38 million in OpenAI's founding, has filed the lawsuit naming Sam Altman, Greg Brockman, Microsoft, and OpenAI as defendants. The suit alleges OpenAI violated its core mission to build AGI (artificial general intelligence) that benefits all of humanity, and makes allegations of potential fraud, unjust enrichment, and breach of charitable trust.
The trial is taking place in a California federal courtroom and is expected to include testimony from Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella, Microsoft CTO Kevin Scott, and former OpenAI CTO Mira Murati (now founder of Thinking Machines Lab).
Musk is calling for the court to strip Altman and Brockman of their positions and personal financial benefits from OpenAI's for-profit operations, and to unwind the company's for-profit restructuring.
