AI DRAMA
OpenAI has launched a lawsuit against Elon Musk (anotha one: DJ Khaled voice), claiming he’s been trying to interfere with the company’s progress for his own gain.
The team says Musk has used “bad-faith tactics” to slow things down and push for more control over advanced AI.
This all follows Musk’s own lawsuit last year against OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, arguing that changes to the company’s structure go against its original purpose.
Musk co-founded OpenAI but left in 2018.
He now says the company has strayed from its mission to build AI that benefits everyone.

OpenAI says Musk is trying to slow them down and take control
Must argues OpenAI has moved away from its original non-profit mission.
A March 2026 trial is set, with both sides expected to give evidence.
The tension has only grown.
Co-founder chaos
OpenAI accuses Musk of spreading false claims, while Musk’s own AI venture, xAI, is trying to catch up in the same space.
xAI recently merged with its social platform X, and Musk says the combined company now has over $100 billion.
It’s a legal tug-of-war between two major players, but for now, the bigger conversation about AI safety and ethics has taken a backseat.
