Elon Musk. Who else?
A lawsuit against OpenAI and Microsoft that makes the Trump lawsuit against the BBC look trivial.
"In Musk’s telling, OpenAI used the nonprofit identity to get off the ground, then pivoted toward for-profit structures and a deep partnership with Microsoft that fundamentally changed who the company served"
Is the ownership of another AI product really that important? If it was launched by public funding of a proposed "non-profit" project, then how come it's now a commercial product? Does that not amount to fraud?
I suppose it may depend upon how we define the term "non-profit" ...
And we could be about to find out.
