On April 30th, Elon Musk hit the witness stand for day two in his big lawsuit against Sam Altman and OpenAI. He's calling out his old co-founder for ditching the original plan to keep the company non-profit for humanity's good. This clash goes back to OpenAI's start in 2015 as a non-profit, mostly bankrupted by Musk himself. Fast forward, OpenAI flipped to a four-profit beast, now worth $852 billion. Musk says that's a straight betrayal of promises made early on. OpenAI fires back, denying any forever non-profit deal and claiming Musk just wants to slow their role to boost his own rival, XAI, launched in 20. 23. Courtroom vibes got tense with the judge stepping in to keep things straight. Laughter broke out at times, but the real heat is in the stakes. Musk wants Altman booted from the board, which could mess up OpenAI's push for A. Stock offering and shift the whole AI power game. Musk laid out his beef in phases, early hype growing doubts, then full on betrayal by
late 2022 when he pulled his funding. He admitted pushing for majority control back then, like four out of seven board seats, but said it had dilute over time, just like his test mistake, dropped from majority to about 15% after two decades. This trial still unfolding, with both sides digging in on control and promises, whatever the verdict, it sets a ripple through AI's future landscape. From around the world, powered by AI, this is Global News Today.
