In a surprising turn of events, OpenAI has responded to the lawsuit filed by Elon Musk against the organization. OpenAI, a lab focused on developing artificial intelligence for the public good, has alleged that Musk attempted to turn the lab into a for-profit entity before leaving in 2018.
According to OpenAI, Musk breached a contract by putting profits before building A.I. for the public good. The organization claims that Musk’s actions went against their mission and values.
In response, Musk filed a lawsuit against OpenAI and its CEO, Sam Altman, on Friday. The lawsuit alleges that OpenAI abandoned its pledge to develop A.I. carefully and share it with the public when it partnered with Microsoft.
This is not the first time OpenAI has faced legal troubles. The New York Times filed a lawsuit against OpenAI and Microsoft in December for copyright infringement related to A.I. content. This adds another layer of complexity to the ongoing legal battle between the organization and its former founder.
As the legal battle continues to unfold, the future of OpenAI and its mission to develop A.I. for the public good remains uncertain. Stay tuned for updates on this developing story.
