Elon Musk took on Sam Altman-run OpenAI and said the company changed from nonprofit to for-profit. Musk posted on X, " OpenAI was funded as an open source, nonprofit, but has become a closed source, profit-maximiser." This was a response to an X post by a user (@MarioNawfal). He posted that Encode, an organisation led by youth, filed "a bombshell amicus brief urging a federal court to block OpenAI's transition to a for-profit entity". The organisation warned that the transition to for-profit could expose humanity to "existential AI risks" for the sake of investor returns. This action was backed by experts like Nobel Laureate Geoffrey Hinton and AI pioneer Stuart Russell. The court hearing is set for January 14, 2025.
