The dispute between Elon Musk and OpenAI ended with a legal defeat for the businessman in the United States. A jury decided this Monday (18) that the company responsible for ChatGPT cannot be held responsible for accusations of having abandoned its original mission of developing artificial intelligence for the benefit of humanity. The information is from Reuters.
The case placed at the center of the debate the transformation of OpenAI from a research-oriented laboratory into one of the most valuable companies in the global race for artificial intelligence. Musk maintained that the company had prioritized investors and commercial expansion to the detriment of safety and the public interest.
The trial began on April 28 and spanned nearly two weeks of testimony, focusing not only on OpenAI’s structure, but also on the credibility of those involved.

The businessman’s defense tried to weaken the position of the company’s CEO, Sam Altman, while OpenAI’s lawyers stated that Musk also began to act driven by financial interests in the AI sector.
The legal dispute takes place amid the intensification of the global dispute over the generative AI market. OpenAI is preparing for a possible IPO that could value the company at around US$1 trillion.
During the trial, a Microsoft executive stated that the partnership with OpenAI has already consumed more than US$100 billion in investments.
