This is the best summary I could come up with:

Associated Press (AP) — Elon Musk is suing OpenAI and its CEO Sam Altman over what he says is a betrayal of the ChatGPT maker’s founding aims of benefiting humanity rather than pursuing profits.

In a lawsuit filed at San Francisco Superior Court, billionaire Musk said that when he bankrolled OpenAI’s creation, he secured an agreement with Altman and Greg Brockman, the president, to keep the AI company as a non-profit that would develop technology for the benefit of the public.

Under its founding agreement, OpenAI would also make its code open to the public instead of walling it off for any private company’s gains, the lawsuit says.

However, by embracing a close relationship with Microsoft, OpenAI and its top executives have set that pact “aflame” and are “perverting” the company’s mission, Musk alleges in the lawsuit.

“OpenAI, Inc. has been transformed into a closed-source de facto subsidiary of the largest technology company in the world: Microsoft,” the lawsuit filed Thursday says.

“Under its new Board, it is not just developing but is actually refining an AGI to maximize profits for Microsoft, rather than for the benefit of humanity.”

    We’ll have anti gravity hover cars being developed by AGI before we ever acknowledge AGI level technology.

    While I agree with Musk on this, he should take a good look in the mirror. I remember when he stated similar goals himself.

    Yeah the hypocrisy is off the charts lmao. The logical next step is Sam suing Elon for same reason

    Womble ,

    It definitely is, but its still a very strange feeling reading what Musk says and thinking “Huh, he has a point there”

    it 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

    His 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 his AI company has no chance of competing with OpenAI.

    TexasDrunk ,

    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.

    yay 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.

    will_a113 ,

    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.

    A lot of companies claim to plan on open sourcing their products but never do. They get the positive headlines but none of the obligation. It’s a very modern form of greenwashing.

    Even the guy from minecraft said that when he go tired from it, he would open sourced it. Until he was offered a billion dollars of course

    Oh dip, can we sue for that? Hell I got some lawsuits to file

    This is America, you can basically sue anyone for anything.

    Whether you’ll be successful or not is a different question.

    Not_mikey ,

    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.

    Oh 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.

    admiralteal ,

    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.

    The optimal move for "Humanity" would be to stick both of those assholes in a cage to fight to the death & then euthanize the winner.

    If he can sue for that, we should all sue the fuck outta Elon for doing the exact same fucking thing.

    Why did he have to bring the Brazilian peoples into this? Sad.

    Well 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.

    itsJoelle ,

    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.

    I mean he was one of the founders and original board members of OpenAI so it’s not that abstract

    And now he’s a direct competitor with Grok too.
