Elon Musk Had ‘Hair-Raising’ Idea of Passing OpenAI On to His Kids, Sam Altman Says

Sam Altman testified in the Musk v. Altman OpenAI trial and faced questions from Musk’s lawyers about honesty and OpenAI’s founding.

Altman denied misleading Musk, arguing Musk had wanted control of OpenAI and even suggested the company could be left to his children.

The testimony centers on claims that Musk’s donations were used to build a for-profit company and could influence the ownership dispute and public perception of AI leadership.
