Key takeaways from Musk’s testimony at OpenAI trial

Elon Musk testified for more than seven hours over three days this week at a trial in Oakland, California, over the future of OpenAI, casting his lawsuit against the owner of ChatGPT as a defense of the institution of charitable giving.

Musk, the CEO of ‌Tesla and SpaceX as well as the world’s richest person, is also suing OpenAI’s Chief Executive Sam Altman and its President Greg Brockman, saying they betrayed him and the public by abandoning the mission to be a benevolent steward of AI for humanity.
