qwant news | Sam Altman that could reshape AI's future AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. Elon Musk, Tesla’s CEO and one of OpenAI’s co‑founders, took the stand Tuesday at a federal courthouse in Oakland in a civil lawsuit he filed in 2024 against OpenAI chief Sam Altman, co‑founder Greg Brockman, and Microsoft. Musk alleges the trio abandoned OpenAI’s original nonprofit mission to steward safe, open artificial‑intelligence development, turning the organization into a for‑profit venture valued at roughly $852 billion after a massive Microsoft investment. In opening statements, Musk’s lawyer quoted OpenAI’s founding charter and accused Altman and Brockman of “stealing a charity.” Musk testified that he expects AI to surpass human intelligence within a year and warned that, like an uncontrolled child, such super‑intelligent systems could become dangerous without built‑in values. The nine‑person jury was selected Monday, and the three‑week trial will continue with additional testimony from Altman, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella, and others.

qwant news | Sam Altman feud explained as OpenAI trial begins AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. El Elon Musk has sued OpenAI and its CEO Sam Altman, alleging that the company they co‑founded in 2015 abandoned its original nonprofit mission and that Altman “betrayed” that purpose by converting it into a for‑profit hybrid; Musk seeks more than $134 billion in damages to be paid to OpenAI’s nonprofit arm and wants Altman and President Greg Brockman removed, while also naming Microsoft as a defendant for allegedly helping the shift. The case, heard in federal court in Oakland, California before Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers, began with jury selection on Monday and opening statements Tuesday, and is expected to last about three weeks, with both Musk and Altman slated to testify. The trial’s outcome could reshape OpenAI’s structure—potentially reverting it to a nonprofit, imposing leadership changes, or even prompting a breakup—and affect its push toward artificial general intelligence, its upcoming IPO, and the broader AI landscape, as OpenAI calls the lawsuit baseless and a campaign of harassment, while Microsoft denies the allegations.

News Headlines | OpenAI trial begins pitting Elon Musk against Sam Altman AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. A civil trial in Oakland began on April 28, 2026, pitting Elon Musk against OpenAI CEO Sam Altman over the company’s shift from a nonprofit to a for‑profit “wealth machine.” Musk alleges that Altman and president Greg Brockman betrayed the original mission to steward AI for humanity, seeking $150 billion in damages, the removal of Altman and Brockman, and a return to nonprofit status, with proceeds to OpenAI’s charitable arm. He claims he contributed about $38 million in seed funding and that the transformation was done without his consent. OpenAI counters that Musk was aware of, and even supported, the change, and argues his lawsuit is driven by personal grievances after he left the board and started his own AI venture. The case could affect OpenAI’s planned IPO, its valuation—potentially up to $1 trillion—and broader public concerns about AI governance.

The Guardian | Musk and Altman’s bitter feud over OpenAI to be laid bare in court by Dara Kerr and Nick Robins-Early AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. Elon Musk has taken Sam Altman and OpenAI to trial in Oakland, claiming the AI startup abandoned its original nonprofit mission after Altman reorganised the company into a for‑profit entity, stole Musk’s $38 million contribution and enriched himself and president Greg Brockman, and is therefore liable for up to $134 billion in damages and removal of the two executives. OpenAI argues Musk knew of and even approved the restructuring, characterises the suit as a jealous, baseless “harassment” campaign and says the funding was a tax‑deductible donation, not an investment. The case, which pits two of Silicon Valley’s most powerful figures against each other and could affect OpenAI’s slated $1 trillion‑valued public offering, will be heard by a nine‑person jury over two to three weeks, with high‑profile witnesses—including Microsoft’s Satya Nadella—and a trove of internal emails and texts that promise to expose the bitter, long‑running rivalry between the tech titans.
