"Following years of legal disputes between Elon Musk and ChatGPT-maker OpenAI, the Tesla CEO is now seeking up to $134 billion from OpenAI and its largest investor, Microsoft.
In the newest court filing, Musk’s lawyers allege that OpenAI gained between $65.5 billion and $109.4 billion as a result of his contributions to the company. Microsoft allegedly gained between $13.3 billion and $25.1 billion.
Musk’s lawyers claim that his contributions include not just the $38 million in seed funding he provided during OpenAI’s early years—roughly 60% of the nonprofit’s seed funding—but also his nonmonetary contributions. These include recruiting early employees, providing business contacts, and lending his “prestige and reputation” to the venture."

"A California jury has tossed out Elon Musk's high-profile lawsuit against OpenAI and its boss Sam Altman.
In a unanimous verdict, the jury agreed that Musk had waited too long to file his lawsuit, leaving all of his claims essentially expired."
