Elon Musk sent ominous texts to Greg Brockman, Sam Altman after asking for a settlement, OpenAI claims

TechCrunch
OpenAI alleges Elon Musk sent threatening messages to its leadership after proposing a settlement in their ongoing legal battle.

Summary

OpenAI has filed a court document alleging that Elon Musk sent threatening text messages to co-founder Greg Brockman shortly before their trial began. After Brockman suggested both parties drop their lawsuits, Musk reportedly warned that he would make him and Sam Altman the "most hated men in America." While the presiding judge ruled the evidence inadmissible, the disclosure supports OpenAI’s claim that Musk’s lawsuit is a retaliatory move to profit from the company's success and undermine a competitor rather than a genuine effort to address AI safety concerns.
