OpenAI has prevailed in its fight against Elon Musk. A jury on Monday found that Musk did not file his lawsuit against the AI giant within the statute of limitations. The judge quickly agreed with the jury, making the ruling final. The win for OpenAI came after less than two hours of jury deliberation. Within 20 minutes, the judge, who could have taken up to a month to issue a final ruling in the case, agreed with the advisory jury and issued the final say.

OpenAI has been working behind the scenes for some time to plan for a public offering that would likely be among the largest in Wall Street history. The company is currently valued at $500
- Musk v. Altman: Federal jury sides with OpenAI in legal battle between the 2 tech billionaires
A federal jury has sided with OpenAI and its top executives in a feud with Elon Musk, who accused them of betraying a shared vision for it to guide artificial intelligence ’s development as a nonprofit dedicated to humanity’s benefit. The nine-person jury unanimously found that Musk waited too long to file his lawsuit (Musk v. Altman et al.) and missed the deadline for the statute of limitations. Musk, the world’s richest man, was a co-founder of OpenAI, the company that launched in 2015 and went on to create ChatGPT. After investing $38 million in its first years, Musk accused OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and his top deputy of shifting into a moneymaking mode behind his back. The jury served in an advisory role, but Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers accepted the verdict Monday as the court’s own and dismissed Musk’s claims. The trial that began April 27 in Oakland, California, shed light on the bitter falling-out between the two Silicon Valley titans and the beginnings of OpenAI, now a company va
