Key claims and evidence
Key claims in source A
- This was the deal Musk says he signed up for.
- Unlike a conventional corporation, it is required to advance its stated mission and consider the broader interests of all stakeholders.
- It decided only that Musk had waited too long to sue in relation to his core claims about breaches of a founding contract or breach of charitable trust.
- And OpenAI claims it continues to honour this deal even today, despite more than US$20 billion in revenue in 2025.
Key claims in source B
- In phase two, “I started to lose confidence that they were telling me the truth,” he said.
- But Musk testified that after reading the post, Altman reassured him that “OpenAI was staying on the mission as a nonprofit.” Musk said although he was skeptical, he still had no reason to sue the company at that point.
- In the verdict announced today, they found Musk did in fact have reason to think that he was being misled by Altman and Brockman before 2021.
- Altman dealt Elon Musk a major blow—reaching a unanimous advisory verdict that he had sued OpenAI too late and, as a result, his claims are barred by the applicable statutes of limitations.
