A federal judge denied Elon Musk's attempt to prevent OpenAI from transitioning to a for-profit entity, stating he failed to show a strong likelihood of success in his case. U.S. District Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers offered to expedite a trial to examine Musk’s broader claims against OpenAI and its CEO, Sam Altman. Musk argues this conversion breaches original nonprofit aims and stifles competition, actions compounded by a recent $97.4 billion bid to acquire a controlling stake in OpenAI. The court's ruling, welcomed by OpenAI, indicates competing interests in this evolving AI landscape.
Musk has not demonstrated likelihood of success on the merits in his request for a preliminary injunction.
Given the public interest at stake and potential for harm if a conversion contrary to law occurred.
Elon's own emails show that he wanted to merge a for-profit OpenAI into Tesla.
This has always been about competition.
