Musk texted OpenAI's Brockman about settlement days before trial
Elon Musk texted OpenAI's President Greg Brockman two days before the trial kicked off in Musk's lawsuit against OpenAI, signaling a potential settlement in the closely watched dispute over the company's departure from its nonprofit mission.
The timing and content of the messages have emerged as a key detail in settlement negotiations, suggesting both parties were exploring resolution before costly trial proceedings. The case centers on Musk's claim that OpenAI has strayed from its founding commitment to open-source, not-for-profit AI development.
