Overview
- OpenAI, in letters sent Monday, asked California Attorney General Rob Bonta and Delaware Attorney General Kathy Jennings to investigate what it calls improper, anti-competitive behavior by Elon Musk and his associates.
- Chief strategy officer Jason Kwon alleged in the letters that Musk coordinated efforts with Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg and mounted attacks meant to undermine OpenAI.
- OpenAI said Musk’s 2024 suit targets its nonprofit foundation for more than $100 billion in damages, which the company argued would effectively cripple the organization.
- Jury selection in the case is scheduled to begin April 27 in the Northern District of California after a judge ruled in January that a jury would hear the claims.
- California’s attorney general said his office is reviewing the letter, signaling potential regulatory attention to the dispute as the trial approaches.
