"OpenAI's Controversial Cash Grab and Legal Battles: A Threat to Its Success"
TL;DR Summary
OpenAI has leaked emails showing that Elon Musk was supportive of the idea of the company pursuing a for-profit structure and making significant financial commitments to achieve artificial general intelligence (AGI). Musk had suggested merging OpenAI with Tesla or having full control, but the company couldn't agree to terms due to concerns about individual control over OpenAI's mission. Musk eventually left OpenAI to pursue his own AI ventures, and now, with OpenAI securing billions in investment, Musk appears to be upset, possibly because he can't take credit for the achievement.
