Overview
- Musk's lawyers told the court late Tuesday that OpenAI already has bid materials from Musk and xAI and called Meta-related discovery improper for this phase.
- OpenAI previously asked Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers to order Meta to produce any documents or communications about the alleged $97.4 billion offer.
- Meta urged the judge to deny the request, asserting OpenAI should seek any relevant records directly from Musk and his startup.
- OpenAI said its document requests are narrowly targeted and argued depositions may be necessary if the communications were primarily oral.
- The dispute follows the judge's earlier decision to let OpenAI's claims over a purported bid proceed, with a jury trial scheduled for spring 2026.
