""I was a fool who provided them free funding to create a startup," Musk said, expressing regret over his financial support based on the original nonprofit agreement."
"According to emails from 2014 and 2015 read to the jury, the co-founders agreed that OpenAI would operate as a nonprofit, which Musk relied on for his continued donations."
Elon Musk returned to the stand in a lawsuit against OpenAI, alleging he was blindsided by the company's shift from its original nonprofit mission. Musk claims he was misled by co-founders, including Sam Altman, and that he provided significant funding based on their assurances. OpenAI counters that Musk was aware of the need for a for-profit model and only filed the lawsuit after starting his own AI company, xAI. Musk's testimony included emails highlighting his concerns about the co-founders' intentions.
