In a lawsuit filed at San Francisco Superior Court, billionaire Musk said that when he bankrolled OpenAl's creation, he secured an agreement with Altman and Greg Brockman, the president, to keep the AI company as a nonprofit that would develop technology for the benefit of the public.
Under its founding agreement, OpenAl would also make its code open to the public instead of walling it off for any private company's gains, the lawsuit says.
However, by embracing a close relationship with Microsoft, OpenAl and its top executives have set that pact "aflame" and are "perverting" the company's mission, Musk alleges in the lawsuit.
OpenAl declined to comment on the lawsuit.
"OpenAI, Inc. has been transformed into a closed-source de facto subsidiary of the largest technology company in the world: Microsoft," the lawsuit filed says. "Under its new Board, it is not just developing but is actually refining an AGI to maximize profits for Microsoft, rather than for the benefit of humanity!"
AGI refers to artificial general intelligence, which are general purpose AI systems that can perform just as well as or even better than-humans in a wide variety of tasks.
Musk is suing over breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty and unfair business practices. He also wants an injunction to prevent anyone, including Microsoft, from benefiting from OpenAl's technology.
Those claims are unlikely to succeed in court but that might not be the point for Musk, who is getting his take and personal story on the record, said Anupam Chander, a law professor at Georgetown University.
