Jury Rejects Musk's Lawsuit Against OpenAI

A California jury unanimously ruled against Elon Musk in his lawsuit against OpenAI, Sam Altman, Greg Brockman, and Microsoft. Jurors found that Musk filed his claims too late, siding with OpenAI's statute of limitations defense, which argued any alleged harms occurred before 2021. The verdict clears a major obstacle for OpenAI ahead of its reported IPO, removing the threat of a forced restructuring. Musk vowed to appeal to the Ninth Circuit, calling the case a matter of protecting charitable giving in America. OpenAI's attorney dismissed the lawsuit as a hypocritical attempt to sabotage a competitor.
