Musk's $97.4B OpenAI Bid Stirs Rivalry with Altman
Elon Musk's $97.4 billion bid for OpenAI faces rejection from CEO Sam Altman amid escalating tensions and personal conflicts.
Overview
Elon Musk's $97.4 billion offer to acquire OpenAI was humorously declined by CEO Sam Altman, who stated the organization is not for sale. At the AI Action Summit, Altman expressed concern for Musk, suggesting the bid stems from insecurity, and asserted that they are focusing on improving technology rather than engaging in rivalry. Musk, who opted to attend the summit virtually, retorted with personal insults, further escalating a feud rooted in their history as co-founders. Clear separation between nonprofit and for-profit entities remains a priority for Altman, despite Musk's attempts to influence its direction.
