Elon Musk has filed a lawsuit against OpenAI and Microsoft, seeking damages between $79 billion and $134 billion. Musk claims OpenAI defrauded him by shifting from a nonprofit to a for-profit model, benefiting Microsoft. OpenAI's valuation is estimated at $500 billion, and Musk believes he is entitled to a share due to alleged wrongful gains by OpenAI and Microsoft. The case is set for a jury trial in April in Oakland, California.
