ⓝⓞ🅞🅝🅔Elon Musk sues OpenAI and CEO Sam Altman, claiming betrayal of its goal to benefit humanity
gibmiserBroken clocks…
While I agree with Musk on this, he should take a good look in the mirror. I remember when he stated similar goals himself.
TxzKYeah the hypocrisy is off the charts lmao. The logical next step is Sam suing Elon for same reason
It definitely is, but its still a very strange feeling reading what Musk says and thinking “Huh, he has a point there”
Jumutait would actually be really hilarious if all the GenAI corpos sued each other and they all lost
we don’t live in a perfect world though
killeronthecornerHis actual goal is in the final sentence of the article and has nothing to do with moral intent.
Totally a coincidence that Musk has an AI company of his own, and that AI company has no chance of competing with OpenAI.
I’m not surprised he’s getting into that space. What’s he calling it, XAI?
What’s he calling it, XAI?
Oh not at all, why would you think that?
It’s called xAI.
Holy shit, you weren’t kidding. I thought you were just being funny.
Sounds like somebody is trying to fundraise
theprogressivist Ironic.
I was smiling ear-to-ear when I saw the headline. 😁
souperkyay yay Musk is bad… BUT, and hear me for a second, I kinda agree that OpenAI has betrayed its goal to benefit humanity. Ulterior motive or not, I hope this gets somewhere.
His complaint is hinged on the idea that GPT-4 is an AGI, so… I don’t think this is going anywhere. It’ll be interesting to hear what each side says constitutes an AGI though.
Counter suit coming for exact reason coming in 3…2…1…
Oh dip, can we sue for that? Hell I got some lawsuits to file
dvlsgThis is America, you can basically sue anyone for anything.
Whether you’ll be successful or not is a different question.
You can if the company is a non-profit like open AI. Basically when you take on investments for a company you declare what the goal/purpose of a company is, either to make money (for profit) or for some other nebulous cause (non-profit) eg. Ending hunger or saving humanity from AI. If an investor thinks you aren’t following that goal and are pursuing some other goal then they can sue the company.
Sadly most companies are for profit so they can only be sued if they’re trying to do something that doesn’t optimally make money. So a fossil fuel company can’t be sued for legally dumping poison into the air if it’s the most cost efficient method, but they can be sued if they do a less cost efficient solution that would make air quality better because improving people’s health isnt there goal, making money is.
PoggervaniaOh sick, does that mean we can sue Elongated Muskrat for the exact same thing? Pretty sure he abandoned “benefiting humanity” goal as well with SpaceX, Tesla, PayPal (formerly X.com), and Twitter.
Boring company/hyperloop is the clearest example.
Literally any subject matter expert on the subject of transportation can spell out a half a dozen things that make no sense/are actively harmful about all the attention and investment these projects got. Well There's Your Problem has a 3 hour slideshow on the subject, for example. Musk was even caught on the record admitting one of its motivations was to fuck with real transportation projects like California HSR. The whole thing was all-but-provably an elaborate con.

🇰 🌀 🇱 🇦 🇳 🇦 🇰 🇮 🏆If he can sue for that, we should all sue the fuck outta Elon for doing the exact same fucking thing.
tourist2014 Musk: We’re aiming to get a brazillion people on mars by next week Wednesday
2024 Musk: the woke mind virus is in my walls, grimes please unblock me
Why did he have to bring the Brazilian peoples into this? Sad.
𝕱𝖎𝖗𝖊𝖜𝖎𝖙𝖈𝖍The guy providing starlink satellites to Russia is suing a guy for supposedly being evil?
gmtomWell you can literally sue anyone at any time for any reason, so go ahead.
Elon is just absolutely desperate to be a part of ANY conversation at all, isn’t he?
He can’t stand the idea of one single popular topic du jour that he doesn’t have things to spout off about.
I believe he’s even showing up in Alex Jone’s spaces on Twitter too. I have no proof and only a gut feeling alongside the participant sounds just like Elon, speaks in vague tech bullshit just like the man, and only espouses goals and a world view that just so happens to align with Elon and his goals.
psycI mean he was one of the founders and original board members of OpenAI so it’s not that abstract
NOT_RICKAnd now he’s a direct competitor with Grok too.
Hey Kettle! You black!
theodewerehe sees that OpenAI and Microsoft are about to marginalize him, so he's trying to snag a piece of that action, or at least slow them down as much as he can
JaysynThe optimal move for "Humanity" would be to stick both of those assholes in a cage to fight to the death & then euthanize the winner.
