Court denies Elon Musk’s attempt to block OpenAI’s for-profit transformation

Source: Engadget

“US federal judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers has denied Elon Musk’s request for an injunction that would have immediately stopped OpenAI’s conversion into a for-profit entity. Musk filed for an injunction late last year after suing OpenAI and Microsoft and accusing them of telling investors not to fund rival AI companies, such as his own xAI. … While the judge has rejected Musk’s request, she is fast-tracking his lawsuit and will hold an expedited trial later this year on the basis of public interest and on his claim that OpenAI’s transformation has a ‘potential for harm if a conversion contrary to law occurred.'” (03/05/25)
