Musk Intensifies OpenAI Feud, Calls It 'Built on a Lie' as Subpoena Reports Surface

Musk amplified a former director's post to argue the group strayed from its nonprofit mission.

Overview

  • On X, Musk reposted former OpenAI board member Helen Toner’s note criticizing the company’s policy tactics and added that OpenAI is “built on a lie.”
  • He further claimed OpenAI “stole a charity and used it for their own financial gain,” questioning whether it should still be regarded as a nonprofit.
  • Users on X reported receiving subpoenas connected to the MuskOpenAI litigation, including an account describing service at an Oklahoma residence associated with Musk.
  • Musk highlighted nonprofit lawyer Nathan Calvin’s statement that a sheriff’s deputy delivered him a personal subpoena related to California’s AI transparency law SB 53, and OpenAI has not commented on that claim.
  • The latest posts continue a long-running clash over OpenAI’s governance and commercialization following Musk’s earlier objection to any move toward a for‑profit structure, which he called illegal.
