Filed in the Northern District of California, the lawsuit<\/a> <\/strong>claims that OpenAI, once a non-profit organization, has shifted its focus to a for-profit model, distorting the market in favor of itself and its investors.<\/p>\n

Musk\u2019s legal team argues that OpenAI has used its influence to pressure investors away from supporting competing AI ventures, including Musk\u2019s own xAI. According to the lawsuit, OpenAI also coerced investors in its funding round to avoid rival projects, thereby harming the growth of alternatives in the AI space. Musk is seeking a preliminary injunction to stop OpenAI and Microsoft from sharing proprietary data and engaging in practices that could further stifle competition.<\/p>\n

A significant part of Musk\u2019s case revolves around the financial relationship between Microsoft and OpenAI. Since 2019, Microsoft has invested over $13 billion into OpenAI, gaining access to key technologies that Musk argues could be monopolizing the AI market. Musk\u2019s team also points to possible conflicts of interest, citing Sam Altman\u2019s ties to Stripe, suggesting these connections could influence OpenAI\u2019s actions in ways that harm fair competition.<\/p>\n
