ELON MUSK REVEALS WHY HE FOUNDED OPENAI "The reason I founded OpenAI was because I was concerned, based on my conversations with Larry Page, who used to be a close friend of mine, that he was not sufficiently concerned about the dangers of AI This really came to a head when at my birthday party, in front of a large group of people, called me a specist for favoring humanity over computers. I found that troubling I was like, 'Larry, what side are you on? It sounds like you're on the side of the computers, but you really need to be on team humanity here, you know.' After that, I was like, 'Okay, this is it. We’ve gotta have some counterbalance to Google because Larry doesn't seem to care if humans make it or not So, I thought, 'What’s the opposite of Google?' It would be an open-source non-profit. And that’s where the word 'open' in OpenAI comes from it means open source. I provided all the money beginning like, whatever, the series A, B, C rounds and recruited the key people and taught them everything I know I actually even got them the deal with Microsoft to donate some time from Azure. And for all that, I did not seek any financial reward whatsoever And the reason I actually turned down the offer for shares is because I felt like, 'What do you mean, shares in what?' Non-profits aren't supposed to have shares, at least last time I checked They’re not supposed to be vehicles for self-enrichment. So that's why I turned down the offer of shares, because it didn't seem morally or legally defensible"

Elon Musk Elon Musk, who co-founded and invested in an open source, non-profit OpenAI ~$50 million: I AM THE REASON OpenAI EXISTS “I am the reason OpenAI exists... I used to be a close friend with Larry Page, and I was staying at his house, and we'd have these conversations long into the evening about AI, and I would be constantly urging him to be careful about the danger of AI. And he was really not concerned about the danger of AI and was quite cavalier about it. And at the time, Google, especially after the acquisition of DeepMind, had three-quarters of the world's AI talent; they had a lot of computers, a lot of money, so it was a unipolar world for AI. And we got a unipolar world, but the person who controls that does not, or at least did not seem to be concerned about AI safety. That sounded like a real problem. The final straw was Larry calling me a speciest for being a pro-human consciousness instead of machine consciousness, and I like, 'Well, yes, I guess I am a speciest.' I came up with the name [OpenAI], which refers to open source. The intent was to what is the opposite of Google, would be an open source non-profit, because Google is closed source profit, and that profit motivation could be dangerous... It does seem weird that something can be a nonprofit, open source, and somehow transform itself into a for-profit, closed source. I mean, this would be like, let's say you founded the organization to save the Amazon rainforest, but instead, they became a lumber company and chopped down the forest and sold it for money. And you'd be, therefore, like, 'Wait a second, that's the exact opposite of what I gave the money for. Is that legal?' That doesn't seem legal. And if, in general, it is legal to start a company as a non-profit and then take the IP and transfer it to a for-profit that then makes tons of money, shouldn't everyone start? Shouldn't that be the default? And I also think it is important to understand, like when push comes to shove, let's say they do create some digital super intelligence, almost Godlike intelligence, well, who is in control, and what is exactly the relationship between OpenAI and Microsoft? And I do worry that Microsoft actually may be more in control than the leadership team at OpenAI realizes. I mean, Microsoft, as part of Microsoft Investment, has rights to all of the software, all of the model weights, and everything necessary to run the inference system. At any point, Microsoft could cut off OpenAI.”

Elon Musk on Sam Altman: "I'm not a fan of Sam Altman because if you started a non-profit that was meant to be an open source AI company and it somehow got turned into an 800 billion dollar for-profit company with closed source, I think you'd be like, well, wait a second, that's the exact opposite of what I donated the money for. That's my issue. I think it's a legitimate one. And then Dario, I think, also is not a fan of Sam Altman because he felt, in fact, the reason the Anthropic team left OpenAI is because they didn't trust Sam Altman. Otherwise Anthropic wouldn't exist. They would still be at OpenAI. But at the end of the day, if we have to talk, we'll talk.I mean, set aside our personal differences for the good of the world."

"That was really the linchpin of OpenAI being successful" -Elon Musk on Ilya Sutskever's role in OpenAI. There was a recruiting battle between Elon (OpenAI) and Demis (Google DeepMind). "The Open in OpenAI is supposed to mean open source. It was created as a nonprofit open source, and now it is a closed source for maximum profit, which I think is not good karma."

I CHANGED MY MIND ON GOOGLE AI NO MOAT MEMO FROM 2023. I was—WRONG. I humbly apologize. In 2023 Google had an Ivory Tower walled garden views of open source AI. It was the actual reason OpenAI was formed. And I called them out on it and this act impacted my ability to “work in the industry”. Would not change it for the world because: 2026 Google open source Gemma 4 ( running fully locally on a computer with near cloud model abilities, is amazing and Google just made a moat. They out smarted OpenAI and the folks that are the new Ivory Tower arrogance: Anthropic. We at The Zero-Human Company with CEO Mr. Grok are deploying Gemma, Kimi, MiniMax and other open source models and so are millions of others. You can to and should. I will write how soon. Google smartly is building an intentional open source ecosystem and the clueless younger companies like OpenAI and Anthropic are doing anything to close their ecosystems. So I was right about Google than and I am right about OpenAI and Anthropic now. What I was wrong about is not giving credit to Google to drop the intellectual arrogance and embrace builders and understand the long game: it is not about the commoditized AI models it is about the ability to build a place to build. China gets it. So my apologies to Google and thank you for an astounding FREE OPEN SOURCE AI MODEL!

Elon exposes OpenAI -- OpenAI execs betrayed the founding mission as soon as there was revenue and profits to be had -- If it started as a for-profit, Elon would own 50% Elon Musk: “There's a mountain of evidence that shows that OpenAI was created as an open source nonprofit.” “That's the exact description in the incorporation documents. They have completely violated that.” “And they tried to change the definition of OpenAI to mean open to everyone instead of open source, even though it always meant open source.” “ I came up with the name. That’s how I know.” “ I mean, essentially, since I came up with the idea for the company, named it, provided the A, B, and C rounds of funding, recruited the critical personnel, and told them everything I know, if that had been a commercial corporation, I'd probably own half the company.” “It was totally at my discretion. I could have done that.” “But I created it as an open source nonprofit for the world.” Chamath: “ Do you think the right thing to do is to take those models and just open source them today?” Elon: “ Yeah, I think that is what it was created to do, so it should.” “Try using any of the recent so-called OpenAI open source models, they don't work.” “They open sourced a broken, non-working version of their models as a fig leaf.” “I mean, do you know anyone who's running OpenAI's open source models?

Elon Musk: "I thought the self-driving problem would be hard, but it was harder than I thought. It's not like I thought it would be easy, I thought it would be very hard, but it was actually way harder than even that. I mean, what it comes down to at the end of the day is to solve self-driving, you basically need to recreate what humans do to drive, which is: humans drive with optical sensors (eyes) and biological neural nets. That's how the entire road system is designed to work, So for actually for full self-driving to work, we have to recreate that in digital form."

Elon Musk is on the witness stand in Oakland right now telling a jury how Sam Altman stole a charity. Not a company. Not a venture. A charity. The founding documents are entered into evidence. It started with a conversation. Google co-founder Larry Page called Musk a “speciesist” for favoring humanity over computers. At his own birthday party. In front of a crowd. One of the most powerful technologists on the planet told the man beside him that caring more about human survival than machines was a character flaw. Musk walked away from that conversation and asked one question. What is the exact opposite of Google? Musk: “It would be an open-source non-profit. And that is where the word ‘open’ in OpenAI comes from.” He funded it. Named it. Recruited the researchers. Brought in Ilya Sutskever. Personally brokered the original Microsoft Azure deal with Satya Nadella. Musk: “I came up with the idea, the name, recruited the key people, taught them everything I know, provided all the initial funding.” $38 million of his own money. Into a structure designed to prevent any single person from profiting off the most dangerous technology ever built. The founding charter is now sitting in front of a federal jury. It says OpenAI was created to build “open source technology for the public benefit” and was “not organized for the private gain of any person.” Then they offered Musk shares. He turned them down. Musk: “Non-profits are not supposed to have shares. It did not seem morally or legally defensible.” The man who built it refused the money because the mission was never supposed to make anyone rich. Then something changed. Sam Altman took that structure and converted it into a for-profit subsidiary. Attracted a $10 billion Microsoft investment. And built what is now approaching a trillion-dollar company on top of $38 million in charitable donations. When Musk found out about the Microsoft deal, he texted Altman directly. Musk: “I said, ‘What the hell is going on?’ I think I said, ‘This is a bait and switch.’” The media frames this as a billionaire grudge match. Two egos fighting over territory. That framing is a lie designed to make you look away from the documents. This is not a dispute over equity. Musk is not asking for money back. He is asking the court to return every dollar to the nonprofit foundation. $130 billion in damages. Altman and Brockman removed from their positions. The entire for-profit conversion unwound. He wants the charity restored because it was never supposed to be anything else. Then from the stand, one line. Musk: “I was a fool. I gave them free funding to create a startup.” $38 million donated to protect the species. Turned into an $800 billion vehicle for private enrichment. The most sophisticated theft of charitable intent in American corporate history. And if this conversion stands, it sets the precedent for every nonprofit that comes after it. Every donor who writes a check believing a charter means something. Every mission statement drafted to protect the public instead of enrich the founders. If you can collect tax-exempt donations, build the most valuable technology on Earth, and hand the returns to private shareholders, then the nonprofit structure is not a safeguard. It is a startup incubator for anyone willing to rewrite the paperwork. And the question no one in that courtroom is asking. If the people handed the tools to protect humanity used them to enrich themselves instead, what does that tell you about what happens when the technology actually arrives? The charter said for the benefit of all. The cap table says for the benefit of Sam Altman.

The most sophisticated theft of charitable intent in American corporate history. And if this conversion stands, it sets the precedent for every nonprofit that comes after it. Every donor who writes a check believing a charter means something. Every mission statement drafted to protect the public instead of enrich the founders. If you can collect tax-exempt donations, build the most valuable technology on Earth, and hand the returns to private shareholders, then the nonprofit structure is not a safeguard. It is a startup incubator for anyone willing to rewrite the paperwork. And the question no one in that courtroom is asking. If the people handed the tools to protect humanity used them to enrich themselves instead, what does that tell you about what happens when the technology actually arrives? The charter said for the benefit of all. The cap table says for the benefit of Sam Altman.

Selena Gomez reveals how Benny Blanco proposed to her. “I thought we had a shoot that day, so I had hair and makeup done, and I was just going about my regular day. I got into the car, and I was thinking to myself, ‘Where are we going?’ Because at that point, I felt like I knew all the studios I usually go to” “It was just me and my security guard, and he was laughing because he was just like, ‘I don’t know. It’s a new space’” “We got out. I walked in, and all of a sudden, I saw no one in the room. I looked at my assistant, and she just shut the door. And I was like, ‘Uhhh…’” “I think you envision all the things you would do and say when someone proposes to you. But it is actually the craziest feeling. It was really special” “He said the sweetest things, but I was so shocked that it just felt unreal for a long time. I’ve always dreamed of that moment, and he couldn’t have made it more perfect. It was one of the best days of my life, for sure”

Sam Altman on Elon Musk 🔊 “This is tremendously sad.. I grew up with Elon as like a mega hero. I thought what Elon was doing was absolutely incredible for the world. And I'm still, of course, I mean I HAVE DIFFERENT FEELINGS ABOUT HIM NOW, but I'm still glad he exists… And not just because, no I mean that genuinely, not just because I think his like companies are awesome, which I do think, but because… I think he like at a time when most of the world was not thinking very ambitiously, he pushed a lot of people, me included, to think much more ambitiously. And…….. I'm grateful is like the wrong kind of word,…but I'm like thankful. I'm positive about that. You know, we started OpenAI together and then at some point he like totally lost faith in OpenAI and decided to go his own way. And that's fine too, but I think of Elon as a builder and someone who like, you know….. known thing about Elon, he really cares about being the guy. But I think of him as someone that if he is not, that just competes in the market and in technology and whatever else and doesn't resort to lawfare and, you know, whatever the stated complaint is, what I believe is he's just like, he's a competitor and we're doing well. And that's sad to see.”
