Elon Musk Sues OpenAI for $150B, Citing Threat to Charitable Giving

Elon Musk has filed a $150 billion lawsuit against OpenAI. He argues the tech giant used assets meant for its founding charity without permission. At a recent hearing, Musk warned that accepting this outcome would undermine the entire foundation of charitable giving in America. He said it could set a precedent for misappropriating funds from every US charity. He recounted how OpenAI grew from a nonprofit in an apartment to an $850 billion company. The original charity still holds 26% of the shares. Whether you see Musk as a hero or hypocrite, this case raises tough questions about profit, philanthropy and governance in the fast-growing AI industry.
