Elon Musk Files Injunction to Block OpenAI's For-Profit Shift, Alleges Anti-Competitive Behavior
Nov 30, 2024, 09:14 PM
Elon Musk has filed for a preliminary injunction to halt OpenAI's transition to a for-profit entity, alleging anti-competitive behavior and a deviation from its original nonprofit mission. Musk's legal action targets OpenAI, Microsoft, and key board members, claiming that OpenAI is discouraging investors from backing rivals like xAI and engaging in improper information sharing with Microsoft. The injunction seeks to prevent OpenAI from further attempts to convert to a for-profit company, arguing that such a move could harm competition and disrupt the AI landscape.
