Altman Only Interested in Money
Musk’s lawsuit claims that OpenAI has deviated from its main goal – to create AI for the benefit of humanity. Instead, the firm, backed by tech giant Microsoft, cares only about its own financial gain.

“To this day, on the OpenAI, Inc. website. They say their mission is to make ChatGPT-4 “benefit all of humanity.” However, in reality, the company has become a closed subsidiary of the largest technology company in the world, Microsoft,” the court documents say.
The ChatGPT-4 update, launched in March 2023, does not in any way correspond to the original principles of OpenAI, Musk said. The upgrade is touted as an “AI breakthrough,” but in reality it is the opposite of all other versions of the chatbot, since its source code is closed.
The billionaire wants the court to prohibit the company and its two co-founders, Sam Altman and Greg Brockman, from making money on ChatGPT-4.

In 2018, the head of Tesla and SpaceX left the company’s board of directors due to disagreements with Altman. A year later, OpenAI created a commercial division in which Microsoft invested about $13 billion.
