Lawyers for Elon Musk on Tuesday moved to dismiss the billionaire’s lawsuit against OpenAI and CEO Sam Altman, ending a months-long legal battle between co-founders of the artificial intelligence startup.

Musk — who co-founded OpenAI in 2015 — sued the company in March, accusing the ChatGPT maker of abandoning its original, nonprofit mission by reserving some of its most advanced AI technology for private customers. The lawsuit had sought a jury trial and for the company, Altman and co-founder and president Greg Brockman to pay back any profit they received from the business.

    The emails appeared to show Musk acknowledging the need for the company to make large sums of money to fund the computing resources needed to power its AI ambitions, which stood in contrast to the claims in his lawsuit that OpenAI was wrongly pursuing profit.

    Normally seeing after how big tech companies use AI, I would agree with him but he prolly just wants X AI to be the next big thing so he is jealous.

        There’s 1440 minutes per day, a lock that’s right twice a day is right for 1/720th of the time. A broken calendar, right for one day of 365, is actually accurate twice as often as a broken clock.

      Not in the slightest. It was just his flimsy excuse to sue a competitor/someone he doesn’t like, and the released emails show he doesn’t believe a word of it. That’s why he dropped it.

      No, he was vindictively attacking a company he was involved with.

      It just happened to be good for others.
