Brockman takes the stand in OpenAI trial after Musk's settlement text, with his own journals calling the nonprofit mission 'a lie'
"Musk texted Brockman two days before trial to ask about settling. Brockman suggested Musk drop all claims against the individuals. Musk replied: "By the end of this week, you and Sam will be the most hated men in America. If you insist, so it will be." This exchange captures the dynamic that has defined the first week of the most consequential AI trial in history."
"Brockman is expected to take the stand on Monday in the federal courthouse in Oakland, California, where the trial over OpenAI's nonprofit-to-profit conversion began last week with $150 billion at stake. Musk is suing OpenAI, Sam Altman, and Brockman, alleging that approximately $38 million he donated to the nonprofit was used for unauthorized commercial purposes."
Elon Musk texted Greg Brockman two days before the OpenAI trial to discuss a potential settlement. Brockman proposed dropping individual claims, but Musk threatened that he and Sam Altman would become the most hated men in America. This exchange, while inadmissible in court, reflects the trial's contentious atmosphere. Brockman's journal entries, which express aspirations for $1 billion and label the nonprofit mission a lie, are admissible and may influence jurors' perceptions of his credibility during the trial.
