A US court has ruled in favor of OpenAI in a lawsuit filed by Elon Musk, who accused the artificial intelligence company of deviating from its original non-profit mission to become profit-oriented. The jury found Musk's lawsuit was filed too late, a decision Musk criticized as a "dangerous precedent" and stated he will appeal.

  • Musk alleged that OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and Chairman Greg Brockman used the organization for personal financial gain, turning a charity into a means of earning money.
  • The jury delivered its verdict in less than two hours, finding sufficient evidence to support the ruling.
  • Musk, a co-founder of OpenAI, had invested approximately $38 million in the company in its early years.
  • The lawsuit was filed in 2024, with Musk accusing OpenAI of abandoning its non-profit objective for a commercial model.
  • US District Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers supported the jury's decision.
