Elon Musk and Sam Altman co-founded OpenAI in 2015 as a non-profit AI research lab. After Musk departed in 2018 following internal power struggles, OpenAI created a for-profit entity and launched ChatGPT. Musk filed suit against Altman and OpenAI in 2024, alleging breach of charitable trust and seeking to strip for-profit assets and oust Altman. A California jury dismissed Musk's lawsuit on statute of limitations grounds in May 2026, though Musk promised to appeal and the two continue to trade public insults on social media.
