Elon Musk targets OpenAI’s for-profit transition in a new filing


Musk lawyers say OpenAI is violating antitrust laws.

The motion follows reports of OpenAI’s intent to become a for-profit business and that it recently began early talks with regulators to move its structural change forward. As for antitrust claims, the lawyers say OpenAI and Microsoft “told investors not to fund their mutual competitors” in violation of the Sherman Act. They also allege that OpenAI benefits from “wrongfully obtained competitively sensitive information” it got through its board connections with Microsoft, violating section 8 of the Clayton Act.
