Elon Musk court loss to OpenAI gets dismissed on technical timing grounds

A California jury on Monday found OpenAI co-founders CEO Sam Altman and president Greg Brockman not liable for having allegedly unjustly enriched themselves by turning the once nonprofit company into a for-profit business.

Tesla CEO and fellow co-founder Elon Musk initially sued the pair, as well as OpenAI and Microsoft, one of the company’s biggest backers, claiming he had donated money to the startup to help get it off the ground with the understanding that it would remain a nonprofit.

Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers of the US District Court for the Northern District of California said she accepts the jury’s verdict, confirming Musk’s loss.
