On the stand, Elon Musk can't escape his own tweets

6 hours ago

Elon Musk testified in court that Tesla is not currently pursuing artificial general intelligence (AGI), contradicting his earlier tweet.
Musk's lawsuit alleges OpenAI's co-founders tricked him into backing a non-profit that later shifted to a for-profit model, which he claims dominated the organization.
Key issues in the case include distinctions between capped and unlimited profits for investors, and whether OpenAI's transition to a for-profit corporation reduces focus on safety.
During cross-examination, Musk admitted to exploring for-profit structures for OpenAI and discussed past efforts to hire employees from OpenAI for Tesla and Neuralink.
The trial will continue with further testimony, including from other witnesses, and the judge has limited discussions on AI scandals while allowing focus on safety approaches.
