美东时间周五，Entangled in love and hate.
There are new developments in the AI Technology circle, and the dramatic “love-hate entanglement” between Musk and OpenAI is quite intriguing.
After experiencing a continuous and intense wave of attacks from Musk, OpenAI has finally launched a counterattack this time.
12 pieces of “evidence”
On Friday Eastern Time, OpenAI published a long article on its official website, accusing Musk of being a "double-faced" person.
At the beginning of the article, OpenAI chronicles the timeline of its relationship with Musk and claims that he wanted OpenAI to be profitable and "work for him" very early on.
Focusing on key points, the 12 pieces of “evidence” describe the conflict from the company's founding to the divergence, from Musk's departure to the establishment of xAI, and the ongoing struggle.
OpenAI is filled with helplessness between the lines.
The article points out that as early as 2017, as one of the co-founders, Musk wanted OpenAI to convert into a for-profit company and to seize control, but he failed.
After his departure, Musk not only resorted to 'harsh words' and repeatedly defamed but also established a competitor, xAI, after OpenAI became an AI leader.
The text also provides some compelling 'evidence'.
OpenAI released some new text messages between co-founders Ilya Sutskever, Greg Brockman, Sam Altman, Elon Musk, and former Board of Directors member Shivon Zilis.
OpenAI criticized that Musk now wants to limit OpenAI through legal means.
In less than a year, Musk has already sued OpenAI for the fourth time.
The company stated that Musk 'should compete in the market, not in the courts.'
It is reported that OpenAI completed a $6.6 billion financing in October this year, with a company valuation reaching $157 billion. Thrive Capital led this financing, with investors including Microsoft and NVIDIA also participating.
Earlier this month, Musk's xAI raised about $6 billion in equity financing.
Endless entanglement with Musk.
In addition to lengthy accusations, OpenAI requested the judge on Friday to deny Musk's request to block the conversion to for-profit.
Currently, Musk and xAI have not responded to requests for comment.
In March of this year, Musk filed a lawsuit against OpenAI and its two founders in San Francisco Superior Court for 'breaching contract and trust obligations.'
He subsequently withdrew the lawsuit in June without providing any explanation.
In August, Musk filed a new lawsuit in federal court, continuing to claim that OpenAI places business interests above public interests, violating the company's founding contract.
In November, Musk expanded the scope of the complaint, accusing Microsoft and OpenAI of violating antitrust laws. He requested the judge to issue a preliminary injunction to prevent OpenAI from transitioning to a profit-oriented structure.
In response, OpenAI denied any conspiracy to restrict competition in the AI market and stated that Musk's request for a preliminary injunction was based on "unfounded accusations."
Microsoft also responded that it and OpenAI "are independent companies that pursue their own strategies, engaging in fierce competition with each other and with other companies."
