Musk Files Legal Blow Against OpenAI and Microsoft

In a twist worthy of a sci-fi plot, Elon Musk filed a preliminary injunction on December 1, 2024, against OpenAI, its co-founders, and Microsoft. Musk alleges anticompetitive tactics and a departure from OpenAI’s 2015 nonprofit mission, threatening his AI startup, xAI. With Microsoft’s hefty $1B 2019 investment on the line, Musk’s legal move aims to keep the AI playground fair. OpenAI remains silent, leaving the tech world on tenterhooks.
