Musk-OpenAI battle: ChatGPT maker hits back at co-founder’s ‘love’ for nonprofit structure

Sam Altman-led artificial intelligence research startup and ChatGPT maker OpenAI on Friday responded to Elon Musk’s legal action against it, accusing him of trying to create a for-profit version of the company in 2017.

Musk, who co-founded OpenAI, has been highly critical of OpenAI’s shift to a for-profit model of late and, in March, filed a lawsuit in a US Federal Court claiming the AI startup breached its founding mission as a nonprofit by adopting a for-profit structure.
