Elon Musk Makes Huge Bid to Seize Control of OpenAI
Briefly

Elon Musk is making headlines with a monumental $97.4 billion bid to acquire OpenAI, the organization he co-founded. The unsolicited offer comes after Musk's longstanding issues with OpenAI's shift toward a profit-driven model following a significant investment from Microsoft. He expressed a desire for OpenAI to revert to its original open-source principles. This move coincides with CEO Sam Altman’s recent acknowledgment of regrets regarding the organization’s current trajectory. Musk’s efforts reflect a mixture of frustration and competitive tensions within the AI sector, underscoring the complexities of leadership and direction in fast-evolving tech landscapes.
It's time for OpenAI to return to the open-source, safety-focused force for good it once was. We will make sure that happens.
I personally think we have been on the wrong side of history here and need to figure out a different open source strategy.
