However, co-founder of OpenAI, Elon Musk is filing a complaint against the company and its director Sam Altman. According to the boss of Tesla and SpaceX, both have abandoned the company’s original mission.
This is an explosive legal case for Elon Musk. The billionaire decided to sue OpenAI and its famous leader, Sam Altman. If history initially held that they were, together, part of the co-founders of the father of ChatGPT, the coming months promise to be eventful. For Elon Musk, the collaboration with Microsoft is transforming OpenAI into a profit machine, which he believes breaks the initial promise.
Elon Musk blames OpenAI… and Microsoft
Yes, Elon Musk is indeed one of the co-founders of OpenAI. Yes, the boss of Telsa left the company’s board of directors in 2018. And yes, Musk takes a very dim view of the imprint placed and left by Microsoft on the publisher of ChatGPT.
It is moreover this last argument, this last observation which pushes him today to attack the company specializing in artificial intelligence. More precisely, Elon Musk accuses OpenAI of working and perfecting a “general artificial intelligence” (if we translate literally) which, rather than serving humanity, would only serve to boost Microsoft’s profits.
OpenAI would have betrayed its initial promise
Elon Musk believes, through his lawyers, that OpenAI has betrayed its initial objective, which was to counter the Tech giants and prevent any monopoly on technology. Seeing Microsoft inject 10 billion dollars into the AI nugget disappointed him somewhat.
The complaint, in detail, addresses breach of fiduciary duty, breach of contract and unfair trade practices. Elon Musk asks the American justice system to force OpenAI to make its research public.
He also wants Sam Altman, with whom he will not go on vacation and who was fired by his board of directors last November before taking over the head of the company a few days later, to renounce the amounts received since OpenAI would have changed trajectory and deviated from its more “humanitarian” objective.
