This filing has a potential to be a case of the century Musk vs Altman & Co



A complaint filed by Elon Musk and several other plaintiffs against OpenAI, LLC, and its CEO, Sam Altman. The key points of the document are as follows:

1. The plaintiffs allege that OpenAI, a company founded in 2015, was initially established as a "capped" or "member-limited" artificial intelligence (AI) research company, meaning that it was not allowed to generate profits for its members or shareholders.

2. OpenAI later restructured as a for-profit corporation, OpenAI, LP, in 2019, with OpenAI, LLC, serving as its general partner. The plaintiffs argue that this restructuring violated the original intent of OpenAI's founding and the expectations of its members.

3. The plaintiffs claim that OpenAI, LP, is now primarily focused on generating profits for its members and shareholders, rather than prioritizing the broader societal benefits of AI research.

4. The plaintiffs argue that OpenAI, LP, has failed to fulfill its obligations under the original membership agreement, which required OpenAI to maintain its non-profit status and prioritize the public interest.

5. The plaintiffs seek a declaration that OpenAI, LP, has breached its contractual obligations and is acting contrary to the public interest. They also seek to enjoin OpenAI, LP, from further violating its obligations under the membership agreement and request that OpenAI, LP, be dissolved or restructured as a non-profit organization.

6. The plaintiffs argue that OpenAI, LP's, for-profit focus and potential conflicts of interest could lead to the development of unsafe or unethical AI technologies, posing risks to society and the environment.

In summary, the complaint filed by Elon Musk and other plaintiffs against OpenAI, LLC, and its CEO, Sam Altman, alleges that OpenAI, LP, has breached its contractual obligations by restructuring as a for-profit corporation and prioritizing profit generation over the broader societal benefits of AI research. The plaintiffs seek to enjoin OpenAI, LP, from further violating its obligations and request that OpenAI, LP, be dissolved or restructured as a non-profit organization.
