Elon Musk Files Injunction to Halt OpenAI's Shift to For-Profit Model

The legal battle accuses OpenAI and Microsoft of antitrust violations and abandoning its nonprofit mission.

Elon Musk has filed a preliminary injunction in federal court to stop OpenAI's planned transition from a nonprofit to a for-profit entity.
The filing alleges OpenAI engaged in anticompetitive practices, including discouraging investors from supporting competitors like Musk's xAI.
Musk's legal team accuses OpenAI of benefiting from sensitive information shared through its ties with Microsoft, which has invested $13 billion in the company.
The motion calls for a pause in OpenAI's restructuring, claiming it would cause irreparable harm to competitors and the public interest.
OpenAI has dismissed Musk's claims as baseless, stating the lawsuit recycles previous allegations without merit.
