OpenAI Seeks Dismissal of Elon Musk's Lawsuit, Citing Harassment

The AI company argues Musk's legal actions are aimed at gaining competitive advantage for his own startup, xAI.

  • OpenAI has filed a motion in a California federal court to dismiss Elon Musk's lawsuit, labeling it as a harassment campaign.
  • The lawsuit, filed by Musk in August, accuses OpenAI of abandoning its original mission in favor of profit maximization.
  • Musk claims he was deceived into co-founding OpenAI, alleging the company shifted from a nonprofit to a for-profit model for financial gain.
  • OpenAI argues Musk's legal claims lack factual support and are intended to benefit his competing AI company, xAI.
  • This legal battle is part of an ongoing feud between Musk and OpenAI, which began with a similar lawsuit in March that was later dropped.
