Key claims in source B
- In a January filing, Musk's attorneys said he should receive up to $134 billion in damages from OpenAI and Microsoft, one of OpenAI's longtime backers, which is also named as a defendant in the lawsuit.
- The startup has repeatedly dismissed Musk's lawsuit as "baseless," calling it a "harassment campaign that's driven by ego, jealousy and a desire to slow down a competitor," according to a post on X earlier in April.
- Should he succeed, Musk said, he wants the court to return all "ill-gotten gains" to OpenAI's nonprofit, not to him personally.
- Musk's lawyers are seeking to dismiss two of the claims, fraud and constructive fraud, ahead of the trial in an effort to "streamline the case," according to a filing.
