"During day three of the trial, Elon Musk struggled to present a confident front, which led to a number of unforced errors. One of his major blunders came when the billionaire claimed that 'Tesla is not pursuing AGI,' or artificial general intelligence, the north star for American AI developers broadly defined as the point at which AI reaches human-level intelligence."
"Musk was asked if he was romantically involved with the Canadian venture capitalist Shivon Zilis, with whom the billionaire shares four kids. 'I think so,' Musk replied on the witness stand."
"Tesla will be one of the companies to make AGI and probably the first to make it in humanoid/atom-shaping form,' Musk wrote on X-formerly-Twitter as recently as March 4, 2026. That comment was even entered as an exhibit in the court case, officially enshrining Musk's lies into the judicial record."
Elon Musk co-founded OpenAI in 2015 but is now suing its CEO Sam Altman in 2026, alleging that Altman has transformed the nonprofit into a profit-driven entity. The civil trial in San Francisco has become chaotic, with Musk's performance raising concerns. He made significant errors, including contradictory statements about Tesla's pursuit of artificial general intelligence (AGI). Musk previously claimed Tesla would lead in AGI development, which contradicts his current assertions. The trial has also revealed personal details about Musk's life, adding to the spectacle.
