Musk's bid to dismiss OpenAI's harassment claims denied in court
A federal judge ruled Elon Musk must face OpenAI's allegations of harassment and fraud, with a jury trial set for spring 2026, according to court documents.
- A federal judge ruled on Tuesday that Elon Musk must respond to OpenAI's allegations that he engaged in a prolonged campaign of harassment against the company through legal actions and public criticism.
- This ruling comes amid Musk's 2024 lawsuit against OpenAI and CEO Sam Altman regarding the organization's move to a for-profit structure, alongside OpenAI's April countersuit alleging that Musk engaged in deceptive business activities in violation of California statutes.
- The judge dismissed some of Musk's claims against OpenAI and Microsoft while noting both sides accused each other of hypocrisy and denied Musk's request to delay or dismiss the countersuit.
- The court set a federal jury trial in Oakland, California, for spring 2026, affirming that OpenAI's allegations are legally sufficient and must proceed despite Musk's attempts to dismiss them.
- This decision suggests a prolonged legal battle that could affect both Musk’s and OpenAI’s roles in the AI industry amid allegations of sabotage and departure from OpenAI's original charitable mission.
