Musk v Altman trial forces a decade of OpenAI into the public record Jury selection in Elon Musk's lawsuit against Sam Altman opened yesterday in San Francisco, with Musk asking for up to $134B in damages and the unwinding of OpenAI's for-profit conversion. The witness list is the part to watch. The details: Damages claim: $134B redirected back to the OpenAI nonprofit, which Musk co-founded with Altman in 2015 before departing the board in 2018. Witness list: Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella and a roster of former OpenAI executives, with Altman and Musk both expected to take the stand. Scope of testimony: Years of internal decisions on safety reviews, the 2023 board ouster, the for-profit restructuring and the company's commercial pivot all enter sworn record.

IPO context: OpenAI and xAI are both preparing public offerings, with the trial timeline running alongside both filings. What enters the record is the harder cost. People who were inside every controversial OpenAI decision will be under oath while the company prepares to go public. This means a pre-IPO market reads the same transcripts as the jury.
