JAKARTA - Elon Musk's lawsuit against OpenAI and its founders is confirmed to continue in March. This case was set to proceed after one US judge stated that there was evidence to support Musk's lawsuit.
Previously, Musk stated that Sam Altman and Greg Brockman had betrayed the initial agreement to keep the company's non-profit mission from commercial profit. According to Musk, the initial guarantee he received when providing initial funding of 38 million US dollars (Rp640 billion) had been unilaterally violated.
After OpenAI's profit-oriented structure at the end of last year to attract greater investment from third parties, this lawsuit was filed. Musk, who also co-founded the Artificial Intelligence (AI) company, claimed that this shift was a form of 'unlawful profit' that harmed the humanitarian vision.
OpenAI has also responded to the lawsuit. They deny the various accusations made by Musk and call the lawsuit a form of 'constant harassment'. OpenAI insists that restructuring is necessary to raise funds for the development of very expensive AI technology.
Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers, who is handling the case, gave the green light to carry out the trial. Launching from TechCrunch, the judge has reviewed the evidence of OpenAI's structural guarantees. The jurors at the trial can assess whether there has been a breach of contract in the business that OpenAI is running.
This jury trial is scheduled to run in March. This case is predicted to be worldwide because Musk is a famous billionaire who owns many large technology companies, including X. Meanwhile, OpenAI is an AI company with the largest number of users.
Musk's lawsuit will not be able to stop OpenAI from becoming a non-profit organization because the company has completed the restructuring process. Musk can only demand financial compensation for the 'unlawful profits' he mentioned earlier.
