OpenAI is countering Elon Musk's lawsuit that challenges its transition to a for-profit model, highlighting Musk's previous support for such a structure. Musk, a co-founder of OpenAI, had initially suggested a for-profit entity before opposing it after leaving the company in 2018. The legal dispute stems from Musk's claim that OpenAI has strayed from its original nonprofit mission.
The lawsuit, which Musk filed in March 2024 and later refiled, has prompted OpenAI to present evidence of Musk's earlier advocacy for a for-profit model. OpenAI's legal team emphasizes that Musk's past communications indicate he believed a for-profit structure could be beneficial. This ongoing legal battle underscores the complexities of governance and control in rapidly evolving AI companies.
