"A federal jury unanimously rejected Elon Musk's $150 billion lawsuit against OpenAI and Sam Altman on Monday. Jurors also ruled Musk's charitable trust claims against OpenAI, Altman, Greg Brockman and Microsoft were barred by the statute of limitations."
"The decision short-circuits a case that threatened to upend the AI industry's power structure."
"The decision means neither OpenAI, its executives nor Microsoft will be held liable for claims brought by Musk. The bottom line: Musk took too long."
A federal jury unanimously rejected Elon Musk’s $150 billion lawsuit against OpenAI and Sam Altman. Jurors also ruled that Musk’s charitable trust claims against OpenAI, Altman, Greg Brockman, and Microsoft were barred by the statute of limitations. The ruling prevents the case from proceeding and blocks liability for OpenAI, its executives, and Microsoft for claims brought by Musk. The outcome short-circuits a dispute that could have affected the balance of power in the AI industry. The decision indicates the claims were not brought within the legally required time window, leading to dismissal rather than a merits-based resolution.
