Elon Musk, CEO of Benefit to Humanity Elon Musk himself was one of OpenAI's co-founders, backers, and initial board members, leaving the company in 2018 due to what he said were conflicts of interest with Tesla.

He said that when he was approached by Altman and fellow co-founder Greg Brockman to help fund the startup in 2015, he was promised that OpenAI would be an open-source, not-for-profit company focused on Creating artificial software safely General Intelligence (AGI) and Responding to Competitive Threats from Google

And three years later Shortly after Musk's departure, OpenAI established a for-profit business. That attracted a $13 billion investment from Microsoft in the San Francisco lawsuit. Lawyers say OpenAI's focus on money is a violation of the original contractual agreement.

The lawsuit aims to force OpenAI to stick to its original mission of benefiting humanity through AI It also attempts to stop companies from monetizing technology developed under the umbrella of a non-profit for the benefit of executives and partners such as Microsoft As reported by TechCrunch Musk It also requests accounting and the possibility of reimbursing donations intended to support OpenAI's publicly minded research.
