Attorneys for tech billionaire Elon Musk have filed for a preliminary injunction against OpenAI, several of its co-founders, and its investor and close collaborator, Microsoft, to prevent OpenAI and other named defendants from engaging in what Musk’s counsel claims is anticompetitive behavior.

This is like his fourth attempt at this. Must be nice to have this much money to keep filing the shit bullshit over and over again. I guess well see him on his fifth go round on this.
But this time he has Trump’s judges to side with him.
Except ND Cal. has no Trump appointed judges.
So if I’m reading this correctly, Musk is arguing that because he is a minority shareholder of OpenAI, OpenAI can’t do anything would diminish the value of his other company, xAI.
I think I should buy a share of Tesla stock, incorporate an EV car company ( it doesn’t need to be profitable because neither xAI nor OpenAI are profitable), then sue Tesla on the grounds that Tesla can’t be allowed to profit because that will hurt my company.
(For reference the suit lists Musk’s $10m investment in OpenAI whereas MS has invested $13B.)
Sure, just have that team of lawyers you have on retainer go ahead and file it for you
Expect more random shit to be blocked all in the name of profit for these asshat clowns.
Wanting to make money is anticompetative behavior? Nope, just you, buddy.
Well, this is the same jackass who thinks that if more than one advertiser cancels their contract at the same time it’s also a lawsuit for anticompetitive behavior.
